We have developed a highly efficient formal [1,2]-sigmatropic rearrangement for the generation of ammonium ylides from 3-methylene-azetidines and a-diazo pyrazoamides. By employing a readily available chiral cobalt(II) complex of chiral N,N'-dioxide, we achieved ring expansion of azetidines to afford various quaternary prolineamide derivatives with excellent yield (up to 99%) and enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee) under mild reaction conditions. The installation of a pyrazoamide group as a masked brick to build chiral scaffolds proved successful for the rearrangement of ammonium ylides, and the enantioselective ring expansion process was elucidated by DFT calculations.
