Synthesis of chiral seven-membered cyclic sulfonamides through palladium-catalyzed arylation of cyclic imines†
Abstract
An enantioselective palladium-catalyzed addition of arylboronic acids to seven-membered cyclic N-sulfonyl aldimines and ketimines has been developed, giving the chiral cyclic sulfonamides with excellent yields and up to 99% ee.
