hi,
the backdoor command should be on the bgp router that receives
the route. So you would need on r1:
router bgp x
 network 4.4.4.4 mask 255.255.255.255 backdoor
and on r4:
router bgp y
 network 1.1.1.1 mask 255.255.255.255 backdoor.
assuming the loobpack interfaces are configured as /32
regards
reinhold
