Straightforward Synthesis of Succinimide-Fused Pyrrolizidines by A Three-Component Reaction of α-Diketone, Amino Acid, and Maleimide

Abstract

An efficient, one-pot, three-component [3+2] cycloaddition reaction of azomethine ylide obtained from α-dicarbonyl compounds (cyclic and acyclic diketone or keto ester) and amino acids with maleimides under catalyst-free conditions has been developed. This cascade protocol shows high efficiency and remarkable functional group tolerance, and the ubiquitous succinimide-fused pyrrolizidines with a highly compact and strained scaffold were obtained with high yield and excellent diastereoselectivity. Furthermore, this novel and atom-economical strategy could be performed on a gram scale with comparable reaction efficiency.

Key words

[3+2] cycloaddition - multicomponent reaction - α-diketone - maleimide - succinimide-fused pyrrolizidine
