Abstract

The efficient assembly of structurally complex molecules containing multiple continuous stereogenic centers still constitutes a tremendous challenge for any synthetic organic chemist. In this article, we briefly summarize our recent advances in the utilization of enamides as versatile building blocks for the rapid and highly stereoselective construction of different molecular scaffolds containing up to five continuous stereocenters.
