Azo anions in synthesis: α-amino carbanion equivalents from t-butyldiphenyl-methylhydrazones
Abstract
α-Amino carbanion equivalents (![[double bond splayed left]](https://www.rsc.org/images/entities/char_e009.gif)
NH2) and α-hydrazino anion equivalents (![[double bond splayed left]](https://www.rsc.org/images/entities/char_e009.gif)
NHNH2) are readily accessible from the C-alkylation products of t-butyldiphenylmethylhydrazones; these azoalkanes can be efficiently transformed into amines, hydrazines, and also alkanes under mild reaction conditions.
