suggested a novel role for the carbene in the activation of isocyanides, and a proton transfer process was found to be crucial for the generation of two activated species in the catalytic cycle. Various enaminones, some of which are not easily accessible by other methods, were synthesized in excellent yields. This study clearly demonstrates the potential of the nucleophilic activation of isocyanides in
展示了使用 N-杂环卡宾 (NHC) 作为有机催化剂来活化异氰化物的第一个例子。根据之前关于 NHC 和异氰化物之间相互作用的报道,我们开发了一种涉及瞬态亚氨基中间体的催化循环。酮与异氰化物的反应高效地生成相应的烯胺酮。对照实验表明卡宾在异氰化物的活化中具有新的作用,并且发现质子转移过程对于催化循环中两种活化物质的生成至关重要。各种烯胺酮(其中一些不易通过其他方法获得)以优异的产率合成。这项研究清楚地证明了异氰化物的亲核活化在扩大其反应范围方面的潜力。
