General procedure for enantioselective [2,3]-Stevens rearrangement
of vinyl substituted -diazo pyrazoleamides 1: A dry reaction tube was
charged with L2-PiPr2 (0.005 mmol), Ni(OTf)2 (0.005 mmol) and
Ph(CH2)2CO2H (0.02 mmol) under an N2 atmosphere. Then CH3CO2Me
(0.5 mL) was added and the mixture was stirred at 35 C for 40 minutes.
Subsequently, sulfide 2 (0.25 mmol) and diazo compound 1 (0.1 mmol)
were added successively at 20 C. The reaction was detected by TLC.
After the diazo compound 1 was consumed (detected by TLC), the residue
was purified by column chromatography on silica gel to afford the product
(Pet/EtOAc = 25/1 as eluent).

General procedure for
enantioselective Sommelet–Hauser
rearrangement of -diazo(aryl) pyrazoleamides 5: A dry reaction tube
was charged with L2-PiPr2 (0.01 mmol) and Ni(OTf)2 (0.01 mmol) under
an N2 atmosphere. Then CH2Cl2 (1.0 mL) was added and the mixture was
stirred at 35 C for 40 minutes. Then the solvent CH2Cl2 was removed in
vacuum. Subsequently, sulfide 7 (0.25 mmol) and diazo compound 5 (0.1
mmol) were added successively. The reaction tube was charged with N2
in 5 cycles again. The solvent was added at 0 C. After the diazo
compound 5 was consumed (detected by TLC), the residue was purified
by column chromatography on silica gel to afford the product (Pet/EtOAc
= 15/1 to 10/1 as eluent).
