Significance

The regioselectivity of a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides and β-phenylsulfonyl enones can be controlled by ligand selection. A chiral Segphos-type ligand (L¹) gave the endo product, while a more bulky, electron-rich Segphos-type ligand (L²) reversed the selectivity to give the exo product. This method easily enables the synthesis of enantiopure functionalized pyrrolidines.
