Abstract
A palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of 2-alkylaziridines with alkenylboronic acids to give homoallylamines is presented. The reaction is highly regioselective and stereospecific and provides convenient access to enantioenriched amines with 1,1-disubstituted, 1,2-disubstituted, and trisubstituted alkenes. The modular synthesis of a 2,5-disubstituted pyrrolidine natural product was completed in three steps and 67% overall yield.
