Selective Amination Reactions of α-Nitro Aryl and Heteroaryl Enoates
摘要:
Highly functionalized tetrasubstituted alkenes were obtained by an unexpected amination reaction promoted by ethyl nosyloxycarbamate on various alpha-nitro aryl and heteroaryl enoates. A nitrene is likely the aminating species responsible for the observed insertion reaction leading to (E)-beta-amino alpha-nitro enoates as the major products, regardless of the substrate configuration. The compounds, bearing two nitrogenous functional groups in different oxidation states, can be regarded as interesting synthons. In contrast, aziridination was observed for alpha-nitro alkyl enoates or beta-nitro allylic alcohols.
