Abstract

An efficient methodology for the synthesis of N-(pyrrolidine-3-ylidenemethyl)acetamides mediated by triflic acid in good yields with separable Z/E isomers within a short reaction time has been demonstrated. The reaction involves the initial formation of the pyrrolidin-3-ylidenemethylium carbocation via the Prins cyclization reaction followed by the Ritter reaction to produce N-(pyrrolidine-3-ylidenemethyl)acetamides. This methodology is also used for the synthesis of their piperidine derivatives.
