Abstract

Depending on the structure of the dipolarophile and the reaction temperature, cycloaddition of N-titanated azomethine ylides such as (III) with the α,β-unsaturated esters (IV), (VII), and (X) respectively forms exo,endo- or regioisomeric cycloadducts as outlined in the reaction scheme.

ChemInform Abstract

Depending on the structure of the dipolarophile and the reaction temperature, cycloaddition of N-titanated azomethine ylides such as (III) with the α,β-unsaturated esters (IV), (VII), and (X) respectively forms exo,endo- or regioisomeric cycloadducts as outlined in the reaction scheme. The results are to be partly explained via the different reaction mechanisms of chelated and nonchelated ylide structures.
