The Iridium-catalyzed enantioselective couplingreaction of vinyl azides and allylic electrophiles is presented and provides access to β-chiral carbonyl derivatives. Vinyl azide are used as acetamide enolate or acetonitrile carbanion surrogates, leading to γ,δ-unsaturated β-substituted amides as well as nitriles with excellent enantiomeric excess. The products are readily transformed into chiral N-containing

Indium trichloride catalyzes the reaction of vinyl azides with unfunctionalized indoles to give vinyl indoles. This is the first example of displacement of the azide group by a carbon nucleophile while preserving the vinyl function. The protocol employs very mild reaction conditions and offers excellent yields of diverse 3-vinyl indoles. It is amenable to gram scale. Access to a library of 3,3'-bis(indolyl)methanes
A protocol to link alcohols with vinyl azides has been established through fluoro- or bromo-alkoxylation of vinyl azides to provide α-alkoxy-β-haloalkyl azides. A series of primary and secondary alcohols including natural products and their derivatives such as sugars and steroids were successfully anchored with vinyl azides. The as-prepared cyanine dye linked testosterones were capable of rapid cell

The novel method for the synthesis of gem-bisarylthio enamines and α-phenylthio ketones was developed via the coupling of α-substituted vinyl azides with thiols in the presence of tetrabutylammonium iodide (TBAI) as a redox catalyst and electrolyte at room temperature. Electronic properties were crucial in the generated products. This protocol features metal- and oxidant-free materials, broad tolerance
An aryl thiol–vinyl azide coupling reaction and a thiol–vinyl azide coupling/cyclization cascade: efficient synthesis of β-ketosulfides and arene-fused 5-methylene-2-pyrrolidinone derivatives
The addition reaction of thiol to vinyl azide has been extensively studied. Variously substituted aryl thiols are all viable for this coupling process. The scope of the other partner is successfully expanded from α-aryl vinyl azide to α-alkyl vinyl azide. A thiol–vinyl azide coupling/cyclization cascade is realized with substituted aryl vinyl azides carrying a 2-methoxycarbonyl group. The value of
