An intramolecular aminative Umpolung cyclization strategy has been developed by using α,α-diphenylglycine ( 2 ) as the amination and Umpolung reagent. Aldehydes ( 1 ) bearing an additional carbonyl group underwent condensation with α,α-diphenylglycine to form an imine, decarboxylation to generate a delocalized 2-azaallylanion, and subsequent intramolecular Umpolung cyclization to produce a variety of exocyclic β-amino alcohols ( 6 ) in 60-93% yields with up to >20:1 trans/cis selectivity under mild conditions.
