Abstract
The cyclisation of amino aldehydes using Bu3SnH in boiling benzene is reported. The reaction proceeds via addition of a tributyltin radical to the aldehyde forming an O-stannyl ketyl and radical cyclisation onto electron poor or rich double bonds gives rise to hydroxy pyrrolidines and piperidines.
