Generation of functionalized azomethine ylides and their application to stereoselective heterocycle synthesis: An equivalent process of C-unsubstituted nitrile ylide …
The synthetic process equivalent to C-unsubstituted (CH) nitrile ylides cycloaddition reaction is achieved via cycloaddition of NH-azomethine ylide and the following fission reaction of the cycloadducts under acidic conditions. Cycloaddition of NH-azomethine ylide generated by a thermal 1, 2-prototropy in 4-oxo-4H-pyrido [1, 2-a] pyrimidine-3-carbaldehyde system with maleimides provides proline derivatives under extremely mild conditions.
