F. Palacios et al., Cycloaddition reactions of neutral 2-azadienes with enamines - Regiospecific synthesis of highly substituted dihydropyridines and pyridines, EUR J ORG C, (11), 2001, pp. 2115-2122
The reaction between electronically neutral 2-azadienes and enamines afford
s isoquinolines, bicyclic pyridine derivatives, tetrasubstituted 1,2-dihydr
opyridines, and pyridines, Dimerization of heterodienes gives pentasubstitu
ted 2,3-dihy dropyridines and pyridines in a regioselective fashion.
