ABSTRACT
An expedient access to optically active spiro-[butyrolactone-pyrrolidine] was successfully developed via an unprecedented Cu(I)-catalyzed exo-selective 1,3-DC of azomethine ylides with α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone, which exhibited high diastereoselectivity (>98 : 2), excellent enantioselectivity (96->99% ee) and a broad substrate scope under mild conditions.
