A phosphine-catalyzed highly enantioselective and diastereoselective (up to 98 % ee and >20 : 1 dr) (3+2) annulation between vinylcyclopropanes and N-tosylaldimines has been developed, which allows facile access to a range of highly functionalized chiral pyrrolidines. Notably, this method makes use of vinylcyclopropanes as a synthon for phosphine-mediated asymmetric annulation reaction, which will offer new opportunities for potential applications of cyclopropanes substrates in phosphine-catalyzed organic transformations.
已开发出一种膦催化的乙烯基环丙烷与N-甲苯磺酰基醛亚胺之间的高度对映选择性和非对映选择性(高达98% ee和>20:1 dr)的(3+2)环化反应,该反应可方便地获得一系列高度官能化的手性吡咯烷。值得注意的是,该方法利用乙烯基环丙烷作为膦介导的不对称环化反应的合成子,这将为环丙烷底物在膦催化的有机转化中的潜在应用提供新的机会。
