Title: Gold(I)-catalyzed ring expansions of unactivated alkynylcyclopropanes to (e)-2-alkylidenecyclobutanamines in the presence of sulfonamides. Author: Ye S, Yu ZX. Journal: Org Lett; 2010 Feb 19; 12(4):804-7. PubMed ID: 20078090. Abstract: The ring expansion of cyclopropane derivatives provides a powerful method to construct synthetically useful four-membered carbocycles. Herein, a new type of gold(I)-catalyzed ring expansion of an unactivated alkynylcyclopropane/sulfonamide trapping strategy to (E)-2-alkylidenecyclobutanamines was described. The reaction tolerates a range of aryl and alkyl substituents with moderate to good yields.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
