Abstract
trans-N-Alkyl-2- and/or 5-substituted pyrrolidines are stereoselective ly formed in up to 63% yields by N-chlorination of 2- and/or 5-substit uted N-methylpent-4-enylamine with N-chloro-succinimide, followed by h eating a solution of the resulting N-chloro-unsaturated amines in benz ene with Bu(3)SnH-azoisobutyronitrile under reflux; a pathway involvin g stereoselective cyclization of neutral aminyl radicals is proposed.
