Abstract

Pyrrolidines are common structural subunits present in natural and unnatural products [1]. Depending upon the substituents, pyrrolidines have been reported to possess a variety of important biological activities [2], including antibacterial, neuromodulatory, glycosidase inhibitory, and fungicidal activities. Among these, N-arylpyrrolidines, an important class of compounds, are prepared via alkylation of arylamines with glycol disulfonate in organic solvent for long times [3], using ...
