alpha,alpha'-Di( trimethylsilylmethyl)amines undergo sequential double
desilylation processes. by two-electron oxidation initiated either by
photoinduced electron transfer (PET) or Ag(I)F, to produce non-stabil
ized azomethine ylides efficiently which upon trapping with appropriat
e dipolarophiles give the corresponding pyrrolidines. Application of t
his strategy to cyclic analogue for the rapid construction of biologic
ally important 1-azabicyclo[m,3.0]alkane framework is discussed.
