Enantioselective construction of nitrogen-substituted quaternary carbon centers adjacent to the carbonyl group in the cyclohexane ring was performed with respect to the asymmetric synthesis of anesthetic (S)-ketamine 1. Diastereoselective nucleophilic 1, 2-addition reaction of phenyllithium to α-ketoxime-ether acetal 9 bearing chiral auxiliary on the α-carbonyl function gave benzyloxyamine 11 major in 83% yield with 82% de, which was converted ...
