Cyclopropylation of arylamines at the 2-position with cyclopropylmagnesium carbenoids
摘要:
Direct cyclopropylation of arylamines at the 2-position with 1-chlorocyclopropyl phenyl sulfoxides was achieved. The reaction of N-lithio arylamines with cyclopropylinagnesium carbenoids, which are generated from 1-chlorocyclopropyl phenyl sulfoxides with i-PrMgCl via the sulfoxide-magnesium exchange reaction, is the key of this procedure, This method offers an unprecedented way for the synthesis of arylamines having a cyclopropane ring at the 2-position directly from arylamines.
