Sulfur ylides react with imines, via betaines, to give aziridines. We sought to determine whether betaine formation was reversible in reactions of benzyl-, amide- and ester-stabilised ylides by carrying out cross-over experiments. Thus, the intermediate betaines were generated independently from the corresponding sulfonium salt in the presence of a more reactive imine (p-nitrobenzaldimine). It was found that no incorporation of the more reactive imine was observed in reactions with the benzyl-stabilised ylide, whilst >80% incorporation of the p-nitrobenzaldimine was observed from the ester- and amide-stabilised ylides. These results indicate that benzyl-stabilised ylides react irreversibly with imines but ester- and amide-stabilised react reversibly. Thus, the stereocontrolling step of the process is dependent on the type of ylide employed and the results are used to account for the different diastereoselectivities observed with the different ylides.

The copper(I) complex (FcNN)Cu(OTf) (1; FcNN = N,N′-ethylenebis[(ferrocenylmethylene)amine] catalyzes reactions of ethyl diazoacetate with alkenes to form cyclopropanes in high yield. The same complex also catalyzes nitrene transfer from PhI=NTs to alkene

N-Tosyl aziridines react with a variety of arenes and heteroarenes in the presence of 1-2% of silver hexafluorophosphate at room temperature to afford the corresponding β-aryl amine derivatives in excellent yields and with high regioselectivity.
Iron(ii)-catalyzed intermolecular aziridination of alkenes employing hydroxylamine derivatives as clean nitrene sources

The iron-catalyzed intermolecular aziridination of alkenes with hydroxylamine derivatives is described. Using simple iron(ii) sources and readily available ligands, the formal (2 + 1) cycloaddition process proved to be efficient on both styrenes and aliphatic alkenes, providing access to a wide range of aziridines. In these particularly sustainable reaction conditions, yields up to 89% could be obtained, with a catalyst loading which could be lowered to 5 mol% when the reaction was performed on large scale. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that both concerted and stepwise pathways are operating in this transformation. This journal is
Is the Electrophilicity of the Metal Nitrene the Sole Predictor of Metal-Mediated Nitrene Transfer to Olefins? Secondary Contributing Factors as Revealed by a Library of High-Spin Co(II) Reagents

Recent research has highlighted the key role played by the electron affinity of the active metal-nitrene/imido oxidant as the driving force in nitrene additions to olefins to afford valuable aziridines. The present work showcases a library of Co(II) reage
Chiral bis(pyrazolyl)methane copper(I) complexes and their application in nitrene transfer reactions

In this study, chiral bis(pyrazolyl)methane copper(I) acetonitrile complexes were applied to generate two novel terminal copper tosyl nitrene complexes with the nitrene generating agent SPhINTs in dichloromethane at low temperatures. The syntheses of the chiral bis(pyrazolyl)methane ligands are based on pulegone and camphor, members of the natural chiral pool. The chiral copper(I) acetonitrile complexes were applied as catalysts in the copper nitrene mediated aziridination reaction of different styrene derivatives and the C-H amination of various substrates. The reactions afforded good yields, but low enantiomeric excess under mild conditions. The nitrene species have been characterized with UV/Vis and EPR spectroscopy and the products of the decay by ESI mass spectrometry.

A dicopper nitrenoid complex was prepared by formal oxidative addition of the nitrenoid fragment to a dicopper(I) center by reaction with the iminoiodinane PhINTs (Ts = tosylate). This nitrenoid complex, (DPFN)Cu2(μ-NTs)[NTf2]2 (DPFN = 2,7-bis(fluorodi(2-pyridyl)methyl)-1,8-naphthyridine), is a powerful H atom abstractor that reacts with a range of strong C-H bonds to form a mixed-valence Cu(I)/Cu(II) μ-NHTs amido complex in the first example of a clean H atom transfer to a dicopper nitrenoid core. In line with this reactivity, DFT calculations reveal that the nitrenoid is best described as an iminyl (NR radical anion) complex. The nitrenoid was trapped by the addition of water to form a mixed-donor hydroxo/amido dicopper(II) complex, which was independently obtained by reaction of a Cu2(μ-OH)2 complex with an amine through a protonolysis pathway. This mixed-donor complex is an analogue for the proposed intermediate in copper-catalyzed Chan-Evans-Lam coupling, which proceeds via C-X (X = N or O) bond formation. Treatment of the dicopper(II) mixed donor complex with MgPh2(THF)2 resulted in generation of a mixture that includes both phenol and a previously reported dicopper(I) bridging phenyl complex, illustrating that both reduction of dicopper(II) to dicopper(I) and concomitant C-X bond formation are feasible.

A stereospecific ring opening of various 2-aryl-substituted aziridines with silicon Grignard reagents under copper catalysis is reported. The regiochemical outcome is governed by the steric demand of the silicon nucleophile. The LiCl introduced with the m
Branched Amine Synthesis via Aziridine or Azetidine Opening with Organotrifluoroborates by Cooperative Br?nsted/Lewis Acid Catalysis: An Acid-Dependent Divergent Mechanism
Nguyen, Truong N.,May, Jeremy A.
, p. 3618 - 3621 (2018/06/26)
A practical catalytic method to synthesize β,β- and γ,γ-substituted amines by opening aziridines and azetidines, respectively, using alkenyl, alkynyl, or aryl/heteroaryl trifluoroborate salts is described. This reaction features simple open-flask reaction conditions, the use of transition-metal-free catalysis, complete regioselectivity, and high diastereoselectivity. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that carbocation formation is disfavored. Stereoretentive addition is favored with Br?nsted acid present, while stereoinversion is favored in its absence, indicating divergent mechanisms.
