It involves the nucleophilic attack of the aminopyridine 1 to the HPW-activated carbonyl compound 2, followed by iminium ion formation (iii) and [4 + 1] cycloaddition with the isocyanide. A 1,3-hydrogen shift yields the

• 3a -> 2 hydrogen atom migration is a highly exothermic process. However, the formation of 11 is probably kinetically unfavorable due to the prohibited 1,3-hydrogen shift. Thus, no NMR signals corresponding to 11 were found in the reaction mixture before oxidation. Another possible way of deuterium

The subsequent reaction of aldehyde 232 with another molecule of BOR afforded pyrazoline alkyne intermediate 233 which, after a 1,3-hydrogen

Recently, the [3 + 2] cycloaddition of phosphonate azomethine ylides 235 with ynones 236 to give substituted 1H-pyrrol-2-ylphosphonates 237 has been described by Yu et al. (Scheme 48) [86]. The desired 1H-pyrrol-2-ylphosphonate 241 could also be obtained through

In an attempt to prevent this rearrangement we applied an acetylene substituted with the bulky TMS group [58], which may be easily removed at a later stage, and formed the

The initially formed [4 + 2] cycloadducts rearrange via a 1,3-hydrogen shift sequence to give the final products. The latter were smoothly oxidized by treatment with mCPBA to the corresponding

Moreover, thiobenzophenone (1a) was reported to react as a heterodiene smoothly with cyclooctyne, dicyanoacetylene, and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (2a) to give [4 + 2] cycloadducts of type 3a, which spontaneously rearrange via a 1,3-hydrogen shift yielding rearomatized products of

In the latter case, the stabilization of the initially formed cycloadduct occurred via HCl elimination, whereas, in the other cases, the 1,3-hydrogen shift led to rearomatized products. In our
