Abstract

Organic phosphine-catalyzed [4 + 2] annulation of ethyl 2-(substituted-methyl)-2,3-butadienoates as 1,4-dipole synthons with N-tosylimines gave ethyl 2,6-cis-disubstituted-1-(4-tosyl)-1,2,5,6-tetrahydro-pyridine-3-carboxylates in excellent yields with complete regioselectivity and high diastereoselectivity.
