Abstract

N-Alkenyl iminium ions serve as conduits to three-component [4 + 2] cycloaddition reactions accessing structurally and stereochemically diverse piperidine derivatives. These cationic 2-azadienes participate in endo- or exo-selective [4 + 2] cycloadditions with electron-rich and neutral alkene dienophiles to generate a tetrahydropyridinium ion as the initial cycloadduct. In situ nucleophilic addition to the cycloaddition-derived iminium ion completes the three-component coupling sequence and affords a versatile synthesis of structurally complex piperidines.
