Building on our previously reported techniques, we developed a concise and highly stereoselective synthesis method for β,β-disubstituted α,β-unsaturated esters. This comprises 3 reactions: the aldol reaction of acetic ester derivatives with ketones, acetylation tert-alcohols, an elimination utilizing 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU). During process, anhydride 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) facilitated smooth bulky tert-alcohols; however, employing DBU as base reduced yields....
