Abstract
A diastereoselective synthesis of pyrrolidinooxazolidines was achieved by a metal-free, base-promoted reaction of pyrrolidine and aromatic aldehydes under microwave irradiation. The rare functionalization of an sp(3) C-H bond probably results from an in situ generated azomethine ylide that undergoes cycloaddition with aldehydes.
