✦ Synopsis
Photoinduced Cycloadditions of 2,2‐Dimethyl‐3‐phenyl‐2__H__‐azirine with Nitriles and ‘push‐pull’ Olefines.
Electron deficient nitriles of the type 5a–e in contrast to nonactivated nitriles undergo regiospecific [2+3]cycloadditions to benzonitrile isopropylide (2b), which was generated in situ by irradiation of 2,2‐dimethyl‐3‐phenyl‐2__H__‐azirine (1b), to yield the 2__H__‐imidazole derivatives 6a–e (Scheme 2). The structure of the photoproducts was mainly deduced from ^13^C‐NMR. and mass spectrometry.
Whereas normal olefins or enolethers do not react with 2b, push‐pull olefins of the type 10a–d readily undergo the cycloaddition to give the 3‐alkoxy‐5,5‐dimethyl‐2‐phenyl‐1‐pyrrolines 11a–d (Scheme 3 and 4). The structure of the photoproducts 11a–d indicates that the regiospecificity of the cycloaddition corresponds to that of acrylonitriles and acrylesters with 2b.
