Abstract

Conformationally restricted azabicycles are becoming increasingly important in medicinal research. Asymmetric Heck bicyclization of enynes proceeds to give medicinally useful aza[3.1.0] and aza[4.1.0] bicycles with excellent enantioselectivity. The key organopalladium species after bicyclization can be trapped by silanes and terminal alkynes.
