Cu(i)-catalyzed dearomatizing cascade of thiazoles using two molecules of an α-aryl-α-diazoester: a novel approach for the synthesis of densely substituted 4-thiazolines

Abstract

A novel copper(i)-catalyzed cascade reaction has been devised for the functionalization of thiazoles, which employs two molar equivalents of an α-aryl-α-diazoester.
