Abstract
Abstract The formal [3+2] cycloaddition of 1,3,5-triaryl-1,3,5-triazinanes with donor-acceptor cyclopropanes has been found to provide pyrrolidines in good to excellent yields under mild reaction conditions. Preliminary mechanistic investigation indicates that this formal [3+2] cycloaddition reaction proceeds through competing SN1 and SN2 pathways.
