Ligand-Controlled Diastereoselective 1,3-Dipolar Cycloadditions of Azomethine Ylides with Methacrylonitrile

Abstract

Copper-catalyzed reactions of glycine ester arylimines and methacrylonitrile provide selective access to either the endo or exo pyrrolidine cycloadducts. DFT calculations have elucidated the origins of ligand-controlled diastereoselectivity.
