Abstract:
The asymmetric Michael addition reactions of 1-pyrroline esters with β-fluoroalkyl alkenyl imides and dialkyl azodicarboxylates catalyzed by the AgOAc/Ph-phosferrox or CuOAc/(R)-BINAP complex have been developed. A series of chiral 1,5,5-trisubstituted pyrroline ester derivatives have been obtained in 53%-90% yields with 80%-99% ee's and all > 20:1 dr. The gram-scale synthesis and synthetic application of the chiral trifluoromethylated 1-pyrroline adducts were exhibited: the pyrrolizidin-3-one analogue was first synthesized with 94% ee and > 20:1 dr through two steps of hydrolysis and reductive cyclization; the pyrrolidine and lactam derivatives were also successfully provided under the reducing conditions of NaBH3CN and Pd/C─H2, respectively.

Azide ions act as good nucleophiles and react with unhindered alkyl halides to form alkyl azides. Alkyl azides do not participate in further nucleophilic substitution reactions, thereby eliminating the chances of polyalkylated products. Alkyl azides are reduced by hydride-based reducing agents, like lithium aluminum...
