A new one-pot, transition-metal, acid/base-free domino process is developed for the regioselective synthesis of 1,2,4-trisubstituted pyrroles. The process involves 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of unsymmetrical azomethine ylide resulting from the thermal C-C bond cleavage of unactivated aziridines with β-bromo-β-nitrostyrene, followed by a cascade of elimination and aromatization reaction sequence to preferentially furnish 1,2,4-trisubstituted pyrroles instead of the expected 1,2,3-trisubstituted pyrroles, in good to excellent yields. Further, the application of the methodology for the formal synthesis of ningalin B is delineated.

A convenient synthesis of α-(aziridin-2-yl)-α-(trifluoromethyl) alcohols starting with ethyl aziridine-2-carboxylates is reported. Grignard reaction with the corresponding Weinreb amides led to aziridin-2-yl ketones, and subsequent treatment with Ruppert-Prakash reagent gave the trimethylsilylated target compounds as mixtures of diastereoisomers, which were desilylated with TBAF. In the case of ethyl 1-((S)-1-phenylethyl)aziridine-2-carboxylate, (S,S)- and (S,R)-aziridin-2-yl ketones were obtained, separated chromatographically and transformed into the desired enantiomerically pure α-trifluoromethylated alcohols.
