The development of rhodium-catalyzed diastereoselective N-sulfonylaminoalkenylation of azulenes using N-sulfonyltriazoles is described. This procedure can be successfully applied to rhodium-catalyzed diastereoselective N-sulfonylaminoalkenylation of azulenes starting from terminal alkynes and N-sulfonylazides via a three-component semi-one-pot process.
A synthetic method to prepare azulen-1-yl ketones was developed via oxidative cleavage of the C-C double bond in the reaction of easily obtainable N-sulfonyl enamides with Cs2CO3 under air and natural sunlight and in the absence of a photosensitizer. Oxidative cleavage of C-C triple bonds was also demonstrated for the synthesis of azulen-1-yl ketones via a tandem Cu-catalyzed [3 + 2] cycloaddition, Rh-catalyzed arylation, photooxygenation, and ring-opening reaction in one pot under air and natural sunlight.
A synthetic method to prepare a wide range of 2H‐indazoles was developed via a tandem palladium‐catalyzed deacylative cross‐coupling reaction of 2‐iodoazoarenes and 2‐iodoaryltriazenes with acyldiazoacetates and denitrogenative cyclization reaction of in situ generated diazoacetates having azoaryl and triazenylaryl moieties in one‐pot. Additionally, azoaryl‐substituted diazoacetates underwent palladium‐catalyzed denitrogenative cyclization to produce 2H‐indazoles. The present reaction is a good example in which a Pd(0)‐catalyst is involved in two catalytic cycles in one‐pot.magnified image
Diastereoselective N-Sulfonylaminoalkenylation of Azulenes from Terminal Alkynes and Azides via N-Sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles. -N-Sulfonylaminoalkenylation of azulenes is achieved using triazoles (II) or triazoles prepared in situ from alkynes (IX) and azides (X). The process provides the corresponding products with high Z-selectivity. -(PARK, S.; YONG, W.-S.; KIM, S.; LEE*, P. H.; Org. Lett. 16 (2014) 17, 4468-4471, http://dx.
