A Staudinger/aza-Wittig reaction sequence is described that is catalytic in phosphorus. Towards this end, the phosphane oxide is reduced in situ by diphenylsilane, which allows for substoichiometric amounts of the catalyst 5-phenyldibenzophosphole to be used. The substrate scope is investigated and benzoxazoles, benzodiazepine imidates and a 2-methoxypyrrole were successfully synthesized. These investigations show that a fast aza-Wittig reaction is required to obtain high yields. A catalytic Staudinger/aza-Wittig reaction sequence, involving in situ phosphane oxide reduction, was successfully developed. Benzoxazoles, benzodiazepine imidates and 2-methoxypyrrole were synthesized without phosphane oxide waste products. Copyright

2-Azidopyrrolobenzodiazepines have been synthesized via cyclization of ω-azidocarbonyl compounds employing hexamethyldisilathiane by selectively reducing the aryl azido functionality.
