Aza-pinacol rearrangement: acid-catalyzed rearrangement of aziridines to imines.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A series of di-, tri-, and tetra-substituted N-tosylaziridines [N-(toluene-p-sulfonyl)aziridines] 1, prepared by aziridination of the corresponding alkenes with N-[(tolyl-p-sulfonyl)imino]phenyliodinane (TsN = IPh), was found to undergo a BF3-catalyzed rearrangement (aza-pinacol rearrangement) under mild conditions to give the corresponding N-tosylimines 2 generally in satisfactory yields.

Asymmetric hydrogenation via capture of active intermediates generated from aza-Pinacol rearrangement.
An efficient palladium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation via capture of an active intermediate generated in situ from acid-catalyzed aza-Pinacol rearrangement has been successfully developed, providing efficient access to chiral exocyclic amines with up to 98% ee. Three-, four-, and five-membered cyclic N-sulfonyl amino alcohols are viable substrates. This study opens a new window to the appli...

A simple and efficient trifluoromethanesulfonic acid-catalyzed cycloisomerization of arylpropagylsulfonamide-tethered 2,3-epoxycyclohexan1-ols is described. The cyclization proceeds via tandem semi-pinacol rearrangement/alkyne-aldehyde metathesis to afford spiropiperidines under mild reaction conditions.
متن کاملCatalytic Asymmetric Piancatelli Rearrangement: Brønsted Acid Catalyzed 4π Electrocyclization for the Synthesis of Multisubstituted Cyclopentenones.
The first catalytic asymmetric Piancatelli reaction is reported. Catalyzed by a chiral Brønsted acid, the rearrangement of a wide range of furylcarbinols with a series of aniline derivatives provides valuable aminocyclopentenones in high yields as well as excellent enantioselectivities and diastereoselectivities. The high value of the aza-Piancatelli rearrangement was demonstrated by the synthe...
متن کاملNew catalysts for the transition-metal-catalyzed synthesis of aziridines.
Aziridines are especially in demand because of their natural occurrence in diverse biologically active compounds and their manifold transformations in chemical reactions. The ring constraint renders them very reactive substances. In the presence of nucleophiles (N, O, S, C nucleophiles, and halides) they undergo ring-opening, they are used for [3+2] cycloadditions and [3+3] annulations, and the...

A theoretical study of the kinetic and mechanism of 3-aug-Cope rearrangement in gas phase was performed usingDET methods at B3LYP levels of theory with 6-3114iG(d,p) bass set at 298.I5K. Equilibrium moleculargeometries and harmonic vibrational frequencies of the reactant, transition state Did product were calculated. Then,rate constant and activation thermodynamics parameters were calculated an...
