Abstract

Fused pyrrole derivatives R 0160Au (I)-Catalyzed Enantioselective 1,3-Dipolar Cycloadditions of Muenchnones with Electron-Deficient Alkenes. -The asymmetric catalytic cycloaddition reaction of azlactones (I) and (VII) with alkenes provides an efficient access towards pyrrolinecarboxylic acids or esters. Cyclic olefins (II) or (V) as well as acyclic electron-rich alkenes (IX) can be applied. -(MELHADO, A. D.; LUPARIA, M.; TOSTE*, F. D.;
