Tandem cyclization of N-allylaminyl radicals: Stereoselective synthesis of 1,2,5-trisubstituted pyrrolizidines
摘要:
Radical reaction of N-allylalk-4-enylaminyl radicals, generated from the corresponding N-chloroamines by treatment with Bu3SnH-AIBN in refluxing toluene, was carried out. Tandem cyclization of the resulting neutral aminyl radicals readily took place stereoselectively to give 1,2,5-trisubstituted pyrrolizidines and a pyrroloindole derivative as a sole product in good yields. The cyclization products contained only two stereoisomers in each reaction, indicating that both of the consecutive cyclizations proceeded in a stereoselective manner. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Treatment of 4- and 5-alkynylamines with 0.5-1.2 equiv. of butyllithium brought about a facile anionic cyclization, giving the corresponding enamine pyrrolidines and piperidines having an exo double bond in high yields. Treatment of 4-alkynamides with lithium aluminum hydride also gave the similar enamine pyrrolidines in high yields.
