摘要

Our exploration of this transformation began with phenacyl azide (1, Ar = Ph, Scheme 2). It was found that when 1a was treated with a solution of 2.5 equiv of SmI2 in THF at room temperature under a nitrogen atmosphere, the deep blue colour of SmI2 changed to yellow immediately. A few minutes later, TLC analysis indicated that the starting azide had been completely consumed and a new product had been formed. Subsequent separation and purification gave a ...
