We described hereby an instance of diastereoselective silver-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides with imine compounds. This new method provided synthetically useful, highly substituted tetrahydroimidazole derivatives with efficiency and high diastereoselectivity. We can conveniently obtain fluorinated dihydroimidazole, imidazole, and diamino esters through simple modification.
