Abstract

A copper-catalyzed multicomponent reaction between terminal alkynes, sulfonyl azides, and oximes for the synthesis of N-tosylacetoyloxy alkanimines is reported. This one-pot procedure is carried out in the presence of copper(I) iodide in acetonitrile at room temperature.

  • 15 Typical Procedure for the Preparation of Products 4a–i To a stirred solution of alkyne (1, 1.0 mmol), sulfonylazide (2, 1.0 mmol), and CuI (19 mg, 0.10 mmol) in MeCN (2 mL) was added Et3N (1.5 mL) under argon at r.t. After 10 min, oxime (3, 1.2 mmol) was added, and the mixture was stirred for 4 h. The solvent was removed, the residue treated with of sat. aq NH4Cl (3 mL) and extracted with EtOAc (3 × 5 mL). Organic layers were combined, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by chromatography (silica gel, hexane–EtOAc = 2:1) to give 4. 4-Methyl-N-[(-phenylmethyleneaminooxy)phenyl-ethylidene]benzenesulfonamide (4a) Colorless solid, mp 156–158 °C; yield 0.34 g (87%).

    • 16a Conversion of 4a into 2-Phenyl-N-tosylacetamide (5) To a stirred solution of 4a (1 mmol) in MeOH (3 mL) was added NH4Cl (1 mmol) in H2O (1 mL). Then, Zn powder (2 mmol) was added, and the mixture was heated at 70 °C for 2 h. The mixture was cooled, filtered, and the filtrate was extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was evaporated and purified by chromatography (silica gel, hexane–EtOAc = 3:1) to give 5.
