An enantioselective preparation of 2,5-cis-disubstituted pyrrolidines has been achieved via a dynamic kinetic asymmetric transformation (DyKAT) of racemic donor-acceptor cyclopropanes and (E)-aldimines. Mechanistic studies suggest that isomerization of the aldimine or resultant iminium to the Z geometry is not a pathway that furnishes the observed 2,5-cis-disubstituted products.
