| Abstract: | Manganese‐catalyzed C? H functionalization reactions of ketimines set the stage for the expedient synthesis of cis‐β‐amino acid esters through site‐ and regioselective alkene annulations. The organometallic C? H activation occurred efficiently with high functional group tolerance, delivering densely functionalized β‐amino acid derivatives with ample scope. |
