摘要

Catalytic intramolecular alkene aziridination of sulfamate is an emerging methodology for the asymmetric synthesis of chiral functionalized amines involving the formation of bicyclic aziridines. This study demonstrates the ability of the latter to undergo ring-opening with various carbon nucleophiles: Grignard reagents, lithium salts of terminal alkynes, dithiane, malonate. These S(N)2-type reactions occur with high levels of regio- and chemoselectivity to generally afford seven-membered cyclic sulfamidates in good yields. Carbon nucleophiles have also been found to react with these sulfamidates provided that the sulfamate ester has been previously activated by introduction of a tosyl substituent on the NH group. The versatility of this strategy has been illustrated with the syntheses of spisulosine and its fluor analogue.
