Abstract
&agr;,&bgr;-Unsaturated amides and esters are converted to &agr;,&bgr;-substituted amino amides, esters, and acids. An &agr;,&bgr;unsaturated amide or ester is first converted to an &agr;,&bgr;-hydroxysulfonamide or hydroxycarbamate amide or ester using an osmium-catalyzed aminohydroxylation. The &agr;,&bgr;-hydroxysulfonamide or hydroxycarbamate amides or esters is then cyclodehydrated to produce a &agr;,&bgr;-N-sulfonyl- or the &agr;,&bgr;-N-carbamoylaziridine amide or ester. The ring of aziridine intermediate is then nucleophilically opened in a regioselective manner with a variety of nucleophiles to give the $g(&agr;,&bgr;-substituted amino- amides or esters. Preferred nucleophiles include sulfur, oxygen, carbon, and nitrogen nucleophiles.
