3 + 2]-cycloaddition of nonstabilized azomethine ylides. 10. An efficient strategy for the construction of x-Azatricyclo[m.n.0. 0

Abstract

Various new structural entities related to x-azatricyclo[m.n.0. 0(a)()(,)(b)()]alkanes are constructed by the intramolecular [3 + 2] dipolar cycloaddition of nonstabilized cyclic azomethine ylides. The ylide is generated by the sequential double desilylation of N-alkyl alpha,alpha'-bis(trimethylsilyl)cyclic amines using Ag(I)F as a one-electron oxidant.
