In the accepted mechanism of the metal catalyzed 1,3-DC of azomethine ylides and acrylates, the α-carbon atom of the azomethine ylide (C2 in Figure 5) reacts with the β-carbon of the acrylate

Moreover, an acyclic w-shaped ylide analogue (Ylide-II) was also studied as a reference. We chose this latter 1,3-dipole because it is known that with

Pyrrolines also possess a typical 1,3-dipole precursor structure (azomethine ylide), so a second cycloaddition was attempted with a new equivalent of N-methylmaleimide. The reaction took place under microwave assisted heating (1 h, 75 W) using triethylamine

Subsequently, abstraction of a hydrogen atom α to the nitrogen atom of 48 yields iminium ion 49, which is then converted to azomethine ylide 50 by

  • explanation is the formation of azomethine ylide intermediate 11 (Scheme 8) [19][20]. The carbanion of ylide 11 is then protonated by benzoic acid, and the resulting benzoate anion supports the aromatization process. In fact, Seidel and co-workers provided the experimental evidence for the existence of
