Title: Synthesis of pyrroles by consecutive multicomponent reaction/[4 + 1] cycloaddition of alpha-iminonitriles with isocyanides. Author: Fontaine P, Masson G, Zhu J. Journal: Org Lett; 2009 Apr 02; 11(7):1555-8. PubMed ID: 19320503. Abstract: [4 + 1] Cycloaddition of alpha,beta-unsaturated imidoyl cyanide (2-cyano-1-azadienes) with isocyanides in the presence of a catalytic amount of AlCl(3) afforded polysubstituted 2-amino-5-cyanopyrroles in good to excellent yields. In combination with the IBX/TBAB-mediated oxidative Strecker reaction, this important heterocycle is readily synthesized in two steps from simple starting materials.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
