A survey of enoldiazo nucleophilicity in selective C–C bond forming reactions for the synthesis of natural product-like frameworks†
Abstract
A survey of in situ, catalytically generated carbocations for coupling with enoldiazoacetate nucleophiles was performed. These couplings facilitate the rapid assembly of complex organodiazo compounds that provide a template for the synthesis of a variety of carbocyclic and heterocyclic ring systems.
