Abstract
2-substituted pyrrolidines, including nornicotine, can be prepared from very simple materials, such as carbonyl compounds (mainly aromatic aldehydes) and 3-chloropropylamine. In the case of imines derived from aliphatic ketones and aldehydes, this methodology gives significantly lower yields.
