Selective and reversible 13-dipolar cycloaddition of 6-aryl-15-diazabicyclo3.1.0hexanes with 13-diphenylprop-2-en-1-ones under microwave irradiation

摘要

The first example of the cycloaddition of in situ-generated azomethine imine under microwave conditions is described. The reaction of 6-aryl-1,5-diazabicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes with 1,3-diphenylprop-2-en-1-ones proceeds regio- and stereoselectively giving mostly good yields of the corresponding perhydropyrazolopyrazoles. The products of the reaction undergo cycloreversion under the reaction conditions.
