Experimental Section

General Information: All the reactions were performed under dry nitrogen gas in

glasswares that was flame-dried and equipped with a magnetic stirring bar.

Tetrahydrofuran (THF) was freshly distilled from the sodium complex of benzophenone

before use. Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) was performed using E. Merck silica gel

60 F254 pre-coated plates (0.25 mm). Flash chromatography was performed using Baker

silica gel (40 μm particle size). All compounds were judged pure by TLC analysis (single

spot/ two solvent systems) using a UV lamp or PMA for detection purposes. 1H and 13C

NMR spectra were recorded on a Bruker FT-NMR spectrometer at 500 and 125 MHz,

respectively. High-resolution mass spectroscopy (HRMS) was carried out on a

ThermoFinnigan MAT-900 in electrospray mode. Other mass spectra were obtained on a

Micromass LCT in electrospray mode. Melting points were measured on a Büchi 533

melting point apparatus. All the reagents were purchased from commercial suppliers and

used without further purification.

General procedure (GP1) for the synthesis of γ-Chloro N-sulfinyl aldimine 1: A 500

mL, three-necked, round-bottomed flask was charged with 4-chlorobutanal (5) (100.0

mmol), THF (100 mL), tert-butanesulfinamide (100.0 mmol), and Ti(OEt)4 (110.0 mmol)

under nitrogen atm. The reaction mixture was stirred at rt for 16 h. After completion of

the reaction, charged the saturated NaCl solution (100 mL), ethyl acetate (100 mL) and

S1

stirred for 1 h at rt. The solids were removed by filtration and filtrate was washed with

water (2 × 50 mL). The organic phase was evaporated under vacuum to dryness to

obtained crude product. The crude product was purified by flash column chromatography

(silica gel, 10% ethyl acetate in heptanes) affords the pure γ-Chloro N-sulfinyl aldimine

General Procedure (GP2) for the Synthesis 2-substituted pyrrolidines: To a solution

of aldimine 1 (5 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (25 mL) at –78 °C under nitrogen was added the

Grignard reagents 6 (6 mmol). After stirring for 5 h at –78 °C reaction mixture was

quenched with saturated NH4Cl (20 mL) then separated the organic layer and washed

with water. The organic layer was removed in vacuum to give crude product. The crude

product was dissolved in THF (20 mL) at 23 °C under nitrogen was added the LiHMDS

(7.5 mmol). After stirring for 1 h at 23 °C reaction mixture was quenched with saturated

NH4Cl (20 mL) then extracted with ethyl acetate (2 x 25 mL). The combined organic

layers were washed with water (20 mL) and solvent was removed in vacuum to give

crude product. The crude product were purified by column chromatography (silica gel,

ethyl acetate/hexanes) affords the pure 2-substituted pyrrolidines 4.

General Procedure (GP3) for the deprotection of tert-butanesulfinyl group from 4:

To a solution of 4 (2 mmol) in MeOH (10 mL) was added 4 M HCl solution (in dioxane,

2 mL). After the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 min, the mixture was

concentrated to dryness and carefully dissolved in water (20 mL). The aqueous layer was

washed with ethyl acetate (2 x 20 mL) and neutralized with 6N NaOH solution to pH

~13. Then, the resulting aqueous solution was extracted with ethyl acetate (3 × 30 mL).

The combined organic layers were washed with brine and then dried over anhydrous

Na2SO4. The organic layer was concentrated to dryness to obtained pure 2-substituted

pyrrolidins 7.
