A Lewis acid-promoted annulation method for the synthesis of nitrogen-containing medium-sized rings from azadienes and cyclobutamines has been developed. This reaction involves a cascade of Michael addition and ring-expansion, giving moderate to high yields and a broad scope of products. The use of a chiral base has also been explored for the catalytic asymmetric version of this reaction.
