Description

Ethyl (E)-4,4,4-trifluorobut-2-enoate undergoes regio-and stereospecific cycloaddition with metallo-azomethine ylides generated from the imines of glycine or alanine esters in the presence of silver acetate to give trifluoromethylpyrrolidines in excellent yields. This methodology has been applied to the synthesis of a range of substituted trifluoromethylpyrrolidines. (authors). 19 refs., 3 figs., 1 tab
