The intermolecular Heck reaction of N-substituted 2-pyrroline 4 with aryl triflates 5a-d in the presence of the chiral ligand (S)-BITIANP 1 gives the N-substituted 5-aryl-2-pyrrolines 6a-d highly regioselectively with excellent enantioselectivity (93-95% ee) and good yields (80-92%). In addition, cyclohexenyl triflate 8 can be transformed with 91% ee.
