Isomerization of oxime derivatives was researched in detail to find out the methods for the syn-anti isomerization of O-substituted oximes. Based on these findings were developed simple methods for the preparation of aza-heterocycles from both stereoisomers of oximes. Quinolines were synthesized from β-aryl ketone oximes by treatment with trifluoroacetic anhydride and 4-chloranil. γ,δ-Unsaturated O-methoxyacetyloximes were transformed to 2H-dihydropyrroles by reaction with methoxy-acetic acid.
Various pyrrole derivatives are synthesized from γ,δ-unsaturated ketone O-pentafluorobenzoyloximes by treatment with catalytic amounts of Pd(PPh3)4 and triethylamine via alkylideneaminopalladium(II...
Treatment of γ,δ-unsaturated ketone O-acetyloximes with a catalytic amount of 1,5-naphthalenediol or hydroquinone, acetic acid, and 1,4-cyclohexadiene affords various dihydropyrrole and pyrrole der...
cascade manner with an aminative cyclization triggered by N−O bond cleavage of an alkene‐tethered oxime ester. Various arenes, including electron‐rich and electron‐poor arenes, and heteroarenes can be employed in the reaction system. Regioselectivity and radical trapping experiments support the involvement of alkyl radical species, which undergo a homolytic aromatic substitution (HAS) to afford the
2-Bromomethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrroles are prepared from γ,δ-unsaturated ketone O-methoxycarbonyloximes by treatment with a catalytic amount of CuBr•SMe2 and LiBr.
