Generation and reaction of carbenes from α-oxacyclo-N-aziridinyl imines—a new method for ring expansion of cyclic ethers

Abstract

α-Oxetanyl-N-aziridinyl imines undergo ring expansion on heating to afford dihydrofurans via alkylidenecarbenes, whereas heating α-tetrahydrofuranyl and α-tetrahydropyranyl N-aziridinyl imines affords the ring expanded cyclic enol ethers via alkyl carbenes.
