The NBS-Induced Oxidative Sulfonamidation of Natural Monoterpene Ketones l-Carvone and l-Verbenone in Acetonitrile
摘要
Abstract
NBS-Induced oxidative sulfonamidation of carbonyl terpenoids l-carvone and l-verbenone in acetonitrile was studied. The one-pot reaction of l-carvone with various sulfonamides affords 2,4-dimethyl-1-sulfonylimidazoline carvone derivatives in up to 74% yield and 9-bromocarvone as a by-product. In the reaction of l-verbenone, 2,4,4,7-tetramethyl-4H-benzo[e][1,3]oxazin-3-ium bromide salt was obtained irrespective of the taken sulfonamide, and its structure was proved by single crystal X-ray analysis. The mechanisms of both reactions were proposed.
