A base-catalyzed cycloisomerization of 5-cyano-pentyne derivatives: an efficient synthesis of 3-cyano-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrroles

Abstract

A base-catalyzed cycloisomerization of 5-cyano-pentyne bearing a terminal alkyne group has been developed under metal-free conditions. This reaction involves a tandem process providing efficient access to 3-cyano-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrroles in good to excellent yields in an atom-economic manner with 1,3-cyano migration as the key transformation.
