The stereochemical course of the SmI2-induced intermolecular reductive couplings of the α-(alkoxycarbonyl)amino ketones with the α,β-unsaturated esters is completely stereocontrolled by chelation of the Sm(III) cations attached to the resulting ketyl radicals with the α-(alkoxycarbonyl)amino groups.
