A one-pot acid-mediated reaction has been developed for the N-H/α,β-C(sp(3))-H trifunctionalization of pyrrolidine without any metallic reagents or external oxidants. This reaction involves the intermolecular [3 + 2] cycloaddition of in situ-generated azomethine ylides with acrylic esters to provide facile access to 2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrolizine derivatives in high yields under mild conditions.
