Highly torquoselective electrocyclizations of chiral 1-azatrienes are described. These 1-azatrienes contain an allylic stereocenter that is substituted with a silyl group and are derived in situ from condensation of γ-silyl-substituted enals with vinylogous amides. The ensuing stereoselective ring closures are part of a tandem sequence that constitutes an aza-[3 + 3] annulation method for constructing 1,2-dihydropyridines. Several mechanisms for the formal 1,7-hydrogen shift of these 1-azatriene ...[more]
