In this study, we have developed a sequential “one-pot” procedure involving an enantioselective spirocyclization reaction followed by acidic azlactone opening, which led to amino acid derivatives. The key step of this procedure is a spirocyclization between propargylated azlactones and enals by using a cooperative catalytic approach that combines chiral secondary amine and achiral Pd(0) complexes. The final acid opening of the azlactone motif allows isolation of the corresponding amino acid derivatives as major diastereoisomers in yields ranging from 37% to 70% with enantioselectivities of 85–97% ee. These synthesized amino acid derivatives hold great potential in the pharmaceutical and bioactive compound industries.
