Published: August 2018

Highly diastereo- and enantioselective 1,6-addition of 1,3-ketoamides to -quinone methides (-QMs) using chiral NHCs as Brønsted base catalysts is developed. The reaction is based on the utilization of a 1,3-ketoamide having acidic N-H that forms a chiral ion-pair consisting of the enolate and the azolium ion. Different β-ketoamides and functionalized -QMs are applicable to the reaction. Synthetic application of the method is demonstrated the preparation of highly enantioenriched β and γ-lactam derivatives.

The use of literal prompts (LPs) and inferential prompts (IPs) in shared book reading (SBR) facilitates children's use of language and promotes their thinking and understanding about the stories discussed and beyond. Furthermore, SBR provides a platform for mildly autistic children to have multiple rounds of communication with educators. This study investigated the contribution of LPs and IPs on the language development and affective factors of language learning in mildly autistic children.
