Pyrrolidines and Piperidines by Ligand‐Enabled Aza‐Heck Cyclizations and Cascades of N‐(Pentafluorobenzoyloxy)carbamates

Ligand‐enabled aza‐Heck cyclizations and cascades of N‐(pentafluorobenzoyloxy)carbamates are described. These studies encompass the first examples of efficient non‐biased 6‐exo aza‐Heck cyclizations. The methodology provides direct and flexible access to carbamate protected pyrrolidines and piperidines.
