Abstract
Primary amines react with keto-aldehyde functionality located in the side-chain of an eta(4)-dienetricarbonyliron complex to provide the corresponding pyrrolidines in excellent diastereoselectivity. Two of the pyrrolidine products, 1i and 1k, have been elaborated into pyrrolizidines using a 1,5-C-H insertion and radical cyclization strategy, respectively.
