Application

Bromonitromethane has been used:
  • in production of various protected α-bromo nitroalkane donors (including Fmoc) for use in Umpolung amide synthesis
  • in preparation of (Z)-1-bromo-1-nitroalkenes via sodium iodide-catalyzed Henry reaction
  • in diastereo- and enantioselective cyclopropanation of β,γ-unsaturated a-ketoesters via domino Michael-addition/intramolecular-alkylation strategy

We report that N-(trimethylsilyl)imines serve in the Bis(AMidine)-catalyzed addition of bromonitromethane with a high degree of enantioselection. This allows for the production of a range of protected α-bromo nitroalkane donors (including Fmoc) for use in Umpolung Amide Synthesis (UmAS). Hence

A novel methodology has been developed to obtain enantiopure 2-C-glycosyl-3-nitrochromenes. First, (Z)-1-bromo-1-nitroalkenes were prepared from the corresponding sugar aldehydes through a sodium iodide-catalyzed Henry reaction with bromonitromethane followed by elimination of the resulting 1-bromo-1-nitroalkan-2-ols. In the next step, reaction of

A highly diastereo- and enantioselective cyclopropanation of β,γ-unsaturated α-ketoesters with bromonitromethane has been successfully developed through a domino Michael-addition/intramolecular-alkylation strategy. Acceptable yields (up to 89%) and enantioselectivities (up to 96% ee) have been obtained.
