Abstract
The cross-coupling of N-tosylhydrazones has emerged as a powerful method for the construction of structurally diverse molecules, but the development of catalytic enantioselective versions still poses considerable challenges and only very limited examples have been reported. We herein report an asymmetric palladium/GF-Phos-catalyzed carbenylative amination reaction of N-tosylhydrazones and (E)-vinyl iodides pendent with amine, which allows facile access to a range of chiral pyrrolidines and piperidines in good yields (45–93%) with up to 96.5 : 3.5 er. Moreover, mild conditions, general substrate scope, scaled-up preparation, as well as the efficient synthesis of natural product (−)-norruspoline are practical features of this method.
An efficient asymmetric palladium/GF-Phos-catalyzed carbenylative amination reaction to access structurally diverse chiral pyrrolidines and piperidines in good yields with high chemo-, regio- and enantioselectivities has been developed.![]()
