Stereoselective construction of exo-olefin terminated pyrrolidine and piperidine frameworks was developed by employing SmI-mediated intramolecular radical cyclization of haloalkynaks. The radical cyclization affording 2,3-disubstituted pyrrolidines and piperidines proceeded in a highly stereoselective manner. However, decreasing stereoselectivety was observed in the preparation of 2,4-disubstituted pyrrolidine and 3,4-disubstituted piperidine derivatives in the cyclization.
