Popis: A direct asymmetric one-pot synthesis of optically active 2,3-dihy- dropyrroles from propargylated malo- nonitrile and N-Boc-protected (Boc = tert-butoxycarbonyl) imines is present- ed. The approach is based on a bifunc- tional organocatalytic Mannich-type re- action and a subsequent gold-catalyzed alkyne hydroamination and isomeriza- tion. The compatibility of both catalytic systems is presented and the overall transformation results in good yields (up to 70 %) with high selectivities (endo/exo > 10:1) and enantioselectivi- ties (up to 88 % ee). The absolute con- figuration of the final products is un- ambiguously established by X-ray anal- ysis. To highlight the synthetic potential of the accessed heterocyclic com- pounds, their transformation into 1-pyr- rolines, which represent direct precur- sors of pyrrolidines, is presented.
