title: Thiophenol-mediated 1,5-hydrogen transfer for the preparation of pyrrolizidines, indolizidines, and related compounds.
abstract: The efficient preparation of 1-azabicyclic alkanes is described. Highly functionalized skeletons are prepared in a concise manner using a radical tin-free 1,5-hydrogen transfer-cyclization process. The precursors for the radical reactions are readily assembled either from pyrrolidine/piperidine/hexahydro-1H-azepine or via condensation of a properly designed N-alkylimine with an allenylzinc species.
