We here describe a new copper‐catalyzed tandem annulation of alkenes with α‐bromoalkyl esters and primaryamines for producing polysubstituted pyrrolidin‐2‐ones. The reaction allows the formation of three new chemical bonds, one C–C bond and two C–N bonds, in a single reaction, and represents the first three‐component difunctionalization of alkenes for the synthesis of pyrrolidin‐2‐ones involving [2+2+1]
We report a highly efficient copper-catalyzed three-component reaction of alkylamines, acetylenedicarboxylates, and alpha-bromocarbonyls for the assembly of fully substituted 1,3-dihydro-2H-pyrrol-2-ones. A variety of alkylamines and ammonium salt are functionalized with acetylenedicarboxylates and alpha-bromocarbonyls. N-aryl enam-inoesters are also successfully alkylated with alpha-bromocarbonyls. This protocol is understood to proceed through radical Heck-type coupling of in-situ-generated bulky trisubstituted alkenes with bulky tertiary alkyl bromides, which is realized for the first time.
