Studies on the interaction of isocyanides with imines: reaction scope and mechanistic variations
نویسندگان
چکیده
The interaction of imines with isocyanides has been studied. The main product results from a sequential process involving the attack of two units of isocyanide, under Lewis acid catalysis, upon the carbon-nitrogen double bond of the imine to form the 4-membered ring system. The scope of the reaction regarding the imine and isocyanide ranges has been determined, and also some mechanistic variations and structural features have been described.

Organocatalytic activation of isocyanides: N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed enaminone synthesis from ketones.
The first example of the use of an N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) as an organocatalyst for the activation of isocyanides was demonstrated. On the basis of previous reports on the interaction between NHCs and isocyanides, we developed a catalytic cycle involving transient imidoyl intermediate. The reaction of ketones with isocyanides produced the corresponding enaminones with high efficiency. Cont...

A mixture oftrimethylchlorosilane (TMS-Cl), lithium and tetrahydrofuran (THF) reacts with imines to produce disilyl compound by addition of two trimethylsilyl (TMS) groups to the double bond of the imine. On hydrolysis the TMS on nitrogen is substituted by hydrogen and yields ? -silylamine. In the presence of acetyl chloride (CH COC1), benzene and pyridine, the ?-silyamine produces the corresp...
