The reaction of fluorinated 1,6- and 1,7-enynes, containing the moiety N(PG)C(CF(3))(CO(2)R), with diazo compounds in the presence of [RuCl(cod)(Cp*)] (cod=cycloocta-1,5-diene, Cp*=C(5)Me(5) , PG=protecting group) as the catalyst precursor leads to the formation of fluorinated 3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-2-carboxylates and 4-azabicyclo-[4.1.0]heptane-3-carboxylates. This catalytic transformation was applied to various protecting groups and has proved to be a selective and a general synthetic tool to form constrained proline or homoproline derivatives in good yields. Z stereoselectivity of the created alkenyl group is obtained with N(2)CHSiMe(3), whereas N(2)CHCO(2)Et favours selectively the E configuration for the same double bond. The diastereoselectivity exo/endo depends on the size of the created ring. The X-ray structures of two products have been determined, showing the stereochemistry of the compounds. The reaction can be understood by initial [2+2] addition of the Ru=CHY bond, generated from diazoalkane, with the C≡CH bond of the enyne leading to a key bicyclic ruthenacyclobutane, which promotes the cyclopropanation, rather than metathesis. This selective formation of bicyclic [n.1.0] compounds results from the ruthenium-catalysed creation of three carbon-carbon bonds in a single step under mild conditions.
