Wright and co-workers have reported related methodology, where N-allyl imines were combined with allylmagnesium bromide to afford 4-aza-1,7-octadienes, which were subjected to ring-closing metathesis to afford 1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridines. Difficulty adding other organometallics was encountered. See: Wright, D. L.; Schulte, J. P.; Page, M. A. Org. Lett. 2000, 2, 1847-1850.

Osipov and co-workers have reported related methodology, where N-Cbz imines were combined with allylmagnesium bromide or 3-butenylmagnesium bromide followed by N-allylation to afford 4-aza-1,7-octadienes or 4-aza-1,8-nonadienes, respectively, which were subjected to RCM to afford 1,2,5,6-tetrahydropiperidines or 2,5,6,7-tetrahydroazepines, isomers of the tetrahydroazepines reported herein.
