The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of tryarylideneacetyacetone derivatives with N-metalated azomethine ylides in the presence of titanocene dichloride and triethylamine has been investigated. This two-step synthetic sequence is very efficient and yielded the highly substituted pyrrolidines in good yields. The structure and stereochemistry of one of the products has been established by single-crystal x-ray structure and spectroscopic techniques.

A novel chiral phosphine-urea bifunctional ligand has been developed for Cu-catalyzed asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of iminoesters with methacrylonitrile, a long-standing challenging substrate in asymmetric catalysis. Distortion-interaction energy analysis based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveals that the distortion energy plays an important role in the observed enantioselectivity, which can be attributed to the steric effect between the phosphine ligand and the dipole reactant. DFT calculations also indicate that nucleophilic addition is the enantioselectivity-determining step and hydrogen bonding between the urea moiety and methacrylonitrile assists in control of the diastereo- and enantioselectivity. By a combination of metal catalysis and organocatalysis, excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities (up to 99:1 diastereomeric ratio, 99% enantiomeric excess) as well as good yields are achieved. A wide range of substitution patterns of both iminoester and acrylonitrile is tolerated by this catalyst system, providing access to a series of highly substituted chiral cyanopyrrolidines with up to two quaternary stereogenic centers. The synthetic utility is demonstrated by enantioselective synthesis of antitumor agent ETP69 with a pivotal nitrile pharmacophore and an all-carbon quaternary stereogenic center.

A straightforward and one-pot synthesis of pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-1,3-diones via Ag(I)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides with N-alkyl maleimide, followed by readily complete oxidation with DDQ, has been successfully developed. Further transformation with alkylamine/sodium alkoxide alcohol solution conveniently afforded novel polysubstituted pyrroles in good to excellent yields. This methodology for highly functionalized pyrroles performed well over a broad scope of substrates. It is conceivable that this efficient construction method for privileged pyrrole scaffolds could deliver more active compounds for medicinal chemistry research.
