Tandem transformations of nitriles into various N-heterocycles have been accomplished through the reaction of electrophiles with Blaise reaction intermediates formed in situ. The reaction of the Blaise reaction intermediates with propiolates gives 2-pyridones through consecutive C- and N-nucleophilic reactions. The tandem reactions of the Blaise reaction intermediate with 1,3-enynes proceed through C-nucleophilic addition followed by an electrocyclization-aromatization cascade to give pyridines. Exocyclic enamino esters can be prepared by transformations of ω-chloroalkyl nitriles through chemoselective intramolecular alkylation of the Blaise reaction intermediate. Palladium-catalyzed intramolecular arylations or copper-catalyzed intermolecular cross-coupling reactions of the Blaise reaction intermediate give a range of indole derivatives. Combinations of tandem alkylations and palladium-catalyzed couplings of the Blaise reaction intermediates of ω-chloroalkyl nitriles give N-fused indoles. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart · New York.
Chemoselective intramolecular alkylation of the Blaise reaction intermediates: Tandem one-pot synthesis of exo -cyclic enaminoesters and their applications toward the synthesis of N -heterocyclic compounds

The intramolecular alkylative reactivity and N/C selectivity of the various Blaise reaction intermediates, which are formed from the reaction of the Reformatsky reagents with ω-chloroalkyl nitriles, did not reach the synthetic potential as an entry to exo-cyclic enaminoesters. To circumvent this issue, various additives were investigated, among which the addition of NaHMDS dramatically enhanced the reactivity and N/C selectivity. This modification provided a highly efficient route for the synthesis of various N-fused heterocyclic compounds, as it requires only two steps from nitriles.
