Regioselective Cycloadditions of N-Protonated Azomethine Ylides and 2-Azaallyl Anions Generated from N-(Silylmethyl) Thioimidates, Synthetic Equivalents of Nonstabilized Nitrile Ylides
A water-induced-desilylation method and a direct-desilylation method have been applied to N-(silylmethyl) thioimidates to lead to the generation of N-protonated azomethine ylides and 2-azaallyl anions, respectively.These reactive intermediates are capture
