Preparation of Azetidines by 4‐endo trig Cyclizations of N‐Cinnamyl Tosylamides

Formation of azetidines by electrophilic cyclizations have been reported, starting with homoallylic amines (4-exo mode cyclizations). We reported that the formation of these compounds can be carried out starting with allylic amines (4-endo mode cyclizations) using bis(collidine)bromonium(I) hexafluorophosphate as an electrophile. These cyclizations occur via a carbocation intermediate.
