A Facile, One-Pot Synthesis of β-Substituted (Z)-Acrylonitriles Utilizing an α-Diaminoboryl Carbanion

A simple three-step single-pot procedure for Z-stereoselective synthesis of β-monosubstituted acrylonitriles has been established. The reaction involves olefination of aldehydes with an in situ generated α-diaminoboryl carbanion species. Various aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes were smoothly convert...

Zusammenfassung:A simple three-step single-pot procedure for Z-stereoselective synthesis of β-monosubstituted acrylonitriles has been established. The reaction involves olefination of aldehydes with an in situ generated α-diaminoboryl carbanion species. Various aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes were smoothly converted into the corresponding (Z)-olefin products (up to 96:4 ratio) in good yields (80−98%).
