Cyclization of silylenolether-ynesulfonamides proceeds at ambient temperature under mild reaction conditions under silver catalysis. Bridged compounds were obtained exclusively through 7-exo-dig reactions. The protocol is applicable to a wide range of substrates, thus leading to azabicyclic frameworks.
Keywords: cyclizations; heterocycles; silver; structure elucidation; synthetic methods.
