• compares well with a close analogue reported by Knapp and co-workers suggesting that the aldol addition reaction proceeds under Felkin-Anh control [see Supporting Information File 1]). In conclusion, we have shown that functionalised indolizidinone intermediates can be generated through the Pd-catalysed [3
