Diversity‐Oriented Three‐Component Reactions of Diazo Compounds with Anilines and 4‐Oxo‐Enoates

Abstract

Choosing a path: The title reaction can proceed through two different reaction pathways, and is controlled by the addition sequence of the substrates. Divergent polyfunctional products, pyrrolidines or linear α-amino ester derivatives, are obtained in good yields and high diastereoselectivities.
