via an acid-promoted condensation. A key strategic advantage of this Heck paradigm is that the resultant Heckproduct allylic diazene rapidly undergoes stereospecific denitrogenative [1,5]-sigmatropic rearrangement, eventually furnishing a domino sequence toward 3-substituted tetrahydropyridine (THP) with high enantioselectivity. The substrate-induced diastereoselective version has also been realized
