Tandem conjugate addition–alkylation reaction of various amines with α-bromo-α, β-unsaturated ketones resulted in near-quantitative conversions into the corresponding aziridines when the reaction was carried out in the presence of 10 mol% of phase-transfer, PT catalysts in water. Some chiral quaternary ammonium salts derived from Cinchona alkaloids were investigated as water-stable PT catalysts. The scope and limitations of the reaction have also been investigated. The catalytic performances were significantly improved in comparison with the corresponding ordinary quaternary ammonium salt catalysts, and excellent yields (81%–96%) were obtained. Although an increase in the rate of aziridination has been accomplished, no stereoselectivity was observed. The positive values of the protocol have been confirmed.

Methyl 3-(6'-oxo-4'-methoxy-5',6',7',8'-tetrahydronaphthalen-1'-yl)propanoate (11) was converted by conventional methods into diazoketone (17) which underwent acid-promoted cyclization to dienone (18). Refunctionalization gave dienone (20) which was subjected to a tandem alkylation, conjugate addition process with the sodium enolate of dimethyl malonate to furnish a 2: 1 mixture of dimethyl (2RS,8aSR,10aSR)-2-methoxymethyloxy-10,12-dioxo-2,3,4,5,6,7,8a,9,10-decahydro-1 H-2,10a-ethano- phenanthrene-8,8-dicarboxylate (21) and its 8a-epimer, respectively. Subsequent manipulations led to lactone (26), but attempts to convert this compound into a gibbane derivative were unsuccessful.

The title compounds (16α-carboxymethyl-3α-hydroxy-5α-pregnan-20-one and its sodium and triethylammonium salts) were prepared from 20-oxopregna-5,16-dien-3β-yl acetate by conjugate addition of dimethyl malonate and decarboxylation. Inversion of configuration at carbon C-3 was carried out by Mitsunobu acylation with diethyl azodicarboxylate and formic acid in the presence of triphenylphosphine.
