Stereodivergent (3 + 2)-cycloaddition of donor–acceptor cyclopropanes and citral imines catalyzed by Yb(NTf 2 ) 3 /PyBOX
Abstract
The diastereoselectivity mode of (3 + 2)-cycloaddition between donor–acceptor cyclopropanes and newly obtained citral imines is switched depending on the electronic nature of the substituent at the nitrogen atom in the citral imine.
