Abstract

AbstractPalladium‐catalyzed enantioselective cycloaddition of vinyl cyclopropane dicarbonitriles and nitroolefins was achieved to generate structurally and optically enriched nitrocyclopentanes with three consecutive chiral carbon centers in up to 96 % yield and with up to 92 % ee. The two diastereoisomers produced in each reaction are readily separable by simple chromatography. The present method allows the preparation of both diastereoisomers in optically enriched form.
