We developed a novel palladium-catalyzed four-component assembly based on allenylboronate platform, by which privileged allylic amine structures can be constructed in a regioselective, stereoselective, and diversity-oriented manner. The boryl group acts not only as a useful group that can be transformed to various functional groups afterward but also as a stereochemical controller in the generation of key (π-allyl)palladium intermediates. A short synthesis of rolipram (selective phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitor) is also demonstrated. Copyright

A new procedure for the synthesis of 1,3,4-trisubstituted and 1,4-di-substituted pyrrolidin-2-one derivatives in an enantioselective fashion is reported. The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of (±)-menthol and (-)-8-phenylmenthol derived Fischer alkoxy alkenyl carbene complexes with in situ generated functionalized azomethine ylides gives the corresponding cycloadducts as chelated tetracarbonyl Fischer carbene complexes. Only one regioisomer is detected in all cases, and the diastereoselectivity of the reaction is very high when (-)-8-phenylmenthol derived carbenes are employed. Oxidation and further transformation of the cycloadducts provide an easy access to pyrrolidin-2-ones. The anti-inflammatory and antidepressant drug (+)-Rolipram is readily prepared in four steps in a 20% overall yield by taking advantage of this newly developed methodology.
