Abstract

A simple synthesis of functionalized iminoguanidines from N-sulfoketenimines and N,N′,N′′-trisubstituted guanidines, generated by nanoparticulate copper(II) oxide-catalyzed hydroamination of di(cyclo)alkylcarbodiimides, is described.

Key words

imines - guanidines - ketenes - tandem reactions - azides - alkynes - carbodiimides

A mixture of sulfonyl azide 5, (1.2 mmol), alkyne 4 (1 mmol), CuI (0.019 g, 0.1 mmol), and Et3N (0.101 g, 1 mmol) in toluene (2 mL) was slowly added, and the mixture was stirred at r.t. under N2. When the reaction was complete [~4 h; TLC (EtOAc–hexane, 1:5)], the mixture was diluted with aq NH4Cl (3 mL) and stirred for 30 min. The layers were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with CH2Cl2 (3 × 3 mL). The organic fractions were combined, dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by flash column chromatography [silica gel (230–400 mesh; Merck), hexane–EtOAc (5:1)].
