摘要:
The dehalogenation of 2-halo-3-phenyl-2H-azirine-2-carboxylates is described. Using sodium borohydride and tributyltin hydride 3-phenyl-2H-azirine-2-carboxylates were obtained in moderate yields. The synthesis of a new 2-bromo-2H-azirines with a chiral auxiliary, 10-phenylsulfonylisobornyl 2-bromo-3-phenyl-2H-azirine-2-carboxylate, is reported. Its dehalogenation led to 10-phenylsulfonylisobomyl 2H-azirine-2-carboxylate as single stereoisomer together with the formation of 10-phenylsulfonylisobomyl acetate. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd.
