The first examples of (3 + 2) annulations between azaoxyallyl cations and cyanamides and nitriles to give the corresponding 2-aminoimidazolones and imidazolones are reported. On the basis of the isolation of unexpected imidate products with certain substrates, it is proposed that the reaction proceeds via fast kinetic O-alkylation followed by rearrangement to the thermodynamically favored 2-aminoimidazolones and imidazolones. The method was applied to the formal synthesis of the antihypertensive drug irbesartan.
首次报道了氮丙啶鎓阳离子与氰酰胺和腈的(3 + 2)环加成反应,得到相应的 2-氨基咪唑啉酮和咪唑啉酮。基于某些底物中分离出意想不到的异氰酸酯产物,提出反应通过快速动力学 O-烷基化进行,然后重排得到热力学上有利的 2-氨基咪唑啉酮和咪唑啉酮。该方法被应用于抗高血压药物厄贝沙坦的形式合成。
