Synthesis of enantioenriched azo compounds: Organocatalytic Michael addition of formaldehyde N-tert-butyl hydrazone to nitroalkenes

The unprecedented diaza-ene reaction of formaldehyde N-tert-butyl hydrazone with nitroalkenes can be efficiently catalyzed by an axially chiral bis-thiourea to afford the corresponding diazenes in good to excellent yields (60-96%) and moderate enantioselectivities, up to 84 : 16 er; additional trans...

Sumario:The unprecedented diaza-ene reaction of formaldehyde N-tert-butyl hydrazone with nitroalkenes can be efficiently catalyzed by an axially chiral bis-thiourea to afford the corresponding diazenes in good to excellent yields (60-96%) and moderate enantioselectivities, up to 84 : 16 er; additional transformation of diazenes into their tautomeric hydrazones proved to be operationally simple and high-yielding, affording bifunctional compounds which represent useful intermediates for the synthesis of enantioenriched β-nitro-nitriles and derivatives thereof.
