Abstract

A variety of spirocyclic heterocycles have been constructed by a double-alkylation and reductive cyclization approach utilizing α-heteroatom nitriles as trianion synthons. The method provides access to heteroatom-substituted spirocycles in a variety of ring sizes that are found in natural products and are important in pharmaceutical lead development and optimization.
