Abstract
A palladium-catalyzed cascade cyclization-coupling reaction with suppressed β-hydride elimination provides an efficient synthetic route to 4-methylene-3-arylmethylpyrrolidines. One of the N-sulfonyl oxygens is suggested to coordinatively stabilize an alkylpalladium intermediate, thus preventing the intermediate from the usual β-elimination.
