The umpolung of -tosylhydrazones was reported for the first time. Synthesis of -cyano tosylhydrazones was developed, and various -cyano tosylhydrazones were prepared in good yields. An umpolung -tosylhydrazones mechanism was proposed. Meanwhile, the [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of -cyano tosylhydrazones was examined, and the corresponding 2-aminoimidazoles were given.

Cascade Reaction of Arylboronic Acids and 2'-Cyano-biaryl-2-aldehyde N-Tosylhydrazones: Access to Functionalized 9-Amino-10-arylphenanthrenes.

J Org Chem

School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, the Key Laboratory for Green Processing of Chemical Engineering of Xinjiang Bingtuan , Shihezi University, Shihezi City , 832004 , China.

An efficient, general, and convenient protocol for the synthesis of functionalized 9-amino-10-arylphenanthrene derivatives using a catalyst-free cascade reaction of arylboronic acids and 2'-cyano-biaryl-2-aldehyde N-tosylhydrazones is described. The synthesis was carried out via simple experimental conditions using NaCO in 1,4-dioxane as a solvent. Moreover, the 9-amino-10-arylphenanthrene compounds were also obtained on a gram scale and further derivatized to synthesize the fused phenanthrene derivatives.

Sulfur-containing nitriles have important research value in the life sciences due to their diverse biological activities resulting from the sulfur and cyano functional groups. Herein, a copper-catalyzed cyanothiolation of -tosylhydrazones with thiocyanates to generate α-arylthioalkanenitriles bearing sulfur-substituted quaternary carbon center atoms has been described. This novel protocol involves the procedure of copper carbene species promoting S-CN bond cleavage and C-CN/C-S bond reconstruction to introduce both sulfur and cyano groups onto a single carbon center.

A novel strategy for the synthesis of functionalized carbocycles is defined, through the cascade carbocyclization of alkenylboronic acids with δ- or γ-cyano-N-tosylhydrazones. In the reaction, two C(sp(3))-C(sp(2)) bonds are formed on the former hydrazonic carbon generating an all-carbon quaternary stereocenter, and leading to cyclic ketones featuring an alkenyl side chain with complete diastereoselectivity. The processes are conducted under very simple experimental conditions, only in the presence of K2CO3, in 1,4-dioxane as solvent and under microwave irradiation, and have been applied for the synthesis of a wide structural variety of fused cyclopentanones and cyclohexanones.
