Abstract
A synthetic approach to imidazoles annulated to saturated six-membered cycles featuring S, SO2, NH, NCbz was developed. It was achieved by combining the Neber rearrangement and the Marckwald reaction. The Neber rearrangement applied to cyclic ketones allowed us to prepare in hundred gram quantities previously unknown α-amino ketones. Unstable tosyl ketoximes were used without purification immediately after their preparation. α-Amino ketones react with potassium thiocyanate and cyanate in almost a quantitative yield affording highly pure imidazol-2-thiones or imidazol-2-ones. Desulfurization of imidazole-2-thiones using Raney nickel led to the formation of previously unknown 2-unsubstituted fused imidazoles in high yields.
期刊介绍:
ChemistryOpen is a multidisciplinary, gold-road open-access, international forum for the publication of outstanding Reviews, Full Papers, and Communications from all areas of chemistry and related fields. It is co-owned by 16 continental European Chemical Societies, who have banded together in the alliance called ChemPubSoc Europe for the purpose of publishing high-quality journals in the field of chemistry and its border disciplines. As some of the governments of the countries represented in ChemPubSoc Europe have strongly recommended that the research conducted with their funding is freely accessible for all readers (Open Access), ChemPubSoc Europe was concerned that no journal for which the ethical standards were monitored by a chemical society was available for such papers. ChemistryOpen fills this gap.
