Abstract

The reaction of chloroimines 1 with an excess of lithium powder and a catalytic amount of naphthalene (4 mol%) in THF at− 78° C leads to the corresponding imidoyllithium intermediates 2, which by treatment with different electrophiles [PriCHO, ButCHO, n- C5H11CHO, PhCHO, Et2CO,(CH2) 5CO, EtOCOCl, MeOCSCl, n-C7H15CON (Me) OMe] at− 78 to 20° C and final hydrolysis with water affords functionalysed imines 3. For starting ...
