A rhodium-catalyzed cyclization of 1-(trifluoro-methyl)-4-alkyn-1-ones with arylboronic acids is described to yield a novel class of small rings: (trifluoromethyl)cyclobutanols bearing an exocyclic double bond. The use of a rhodium/chiral diene complex allowed the reaction to proceed under mild conditions, often with high enantioselectivity. An X-ray crystal structure was obtained confirming the formation of the four-membered ring products.
Synthesis of 6-(arylmethylidene)octahydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrimidines and 5-(arylmethylidene)hexahydropyrrolo[1,2-a]imidazoles by the interaction of alk-4-ynals with a,?-diaminoalkanes in DMSO in the presence of KOH

Cyclization of alk-4-ynals with a,?-diaminoalkanes in DMSO under the action of KOH affords bicyclic N,N-enaminals - 6-(aryl- methylidene)octahydro[1,2-a] pyrimidines and 5-(arylmethylidene)hexahydro[1,2-a]imidazoles.
Synthesis of 5-methylidenehexahydropyrrolo[l,2-a]imidazoles and 6-methylideneoctahydropyrrolo[l,2-a]pyrimidines by the reaction of 1-alkynyl-1-chlorocyclopropanes with lithium derivatives of 1,2- and 1,3-diaminoalkanes

A reaction of 1-alkynyl-1-chlorocyclopropanes with excess of lithium derivative of 1,2-diaminoethane leads to 5-methylidenehexahydropyrrolo[l,2-a] imidazoles in 35-72% yields, whereas analogous reaction with lithium derivative of 1,3-diaminopropane gives 6-methyl-ideneoctahydropyrrolo[l,2-a]pyrimidine in up to 50% yield. A mechanism of these unusual multi-step processes includes dehydrochlorination of 1-alkynyl-1-chlorocyclopropanes to form conjugated alkynylcyclopropenes capable of addition of monoalkylamide ions at the double bond, leading to the corresponding secondary cyclopropylamines; the latter under the reaction conditions isomerize to the linear imines, which further undergo a cascade cyclization with sequential involvement of the C=N and C≡C bonds.
