Abstract
A novel tandem formal [5 + 1]/hemiaminalization reaction based on the readily available (2-aminoaryl)divinyl ketones and various nucleophiles has been developed. The reaction represents a highly efficient and convenient methodology for the synthesis of 3,4-benzomorphan derivatives with high diastereoselectivity, and three new bonds and two rings are successively formed in one step under mild, metal-free conditions.
