Abstract: | Treatment of magnesium cyclopropylidenes, which were generated from 1-chlorocyclopropyl phenyl sulfoxides with isopropylmagnesium chloride in THF at −78 °C, with N-lithio arylamines gave arylamines cyclopropylated at the 2-position in moderate to good yields. Use of the magnesium cyclopropylidenes having at least one substituent was found to be essential to this cyclopropylation. This procedure offers a novel synthesis of arylamines having a cyclopropane ring at the 2-position directly from arylamines. |
