Heptadecafluorooctanesulfonic acid catalyzed ring opening reactions of methylenecyclopropanes with aromatic amines, sulfonamides and alcohols in supercritical carbon dioxide
Abstract
The ring opening reactions of methylenecyclopropanes (MCPs) with ArNH2, RSO2NH2 and alcohols can be carried out in scCO2 in the presence of heptadecafluorooctanesulfonic acid which offer a way to synthesize homoallylic amines, sulfonamides and ethers in environmentally benign conditions.
