Asymmetric synthesis of pyrrolidine-containing chemical scaffolds via Tsuji-Trost allylation of N-tert-butanesulfinyl imines

A simple and efficient asymmetric synthesis of novel sp3 rich pyrrolidine chemical scaffolds over five steps starting from simple ketones is described. Key steps involve the use of tert-butanesulfinamide as a chiral auxiliary to perform an asymmetric Tsuji-Trost allylation, with subsequent cross-met...
