Assembling of 3,6-diazabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane framework in oxidative triflamidation of substituted buta-1,3-dienes

Reaction of trifluoromethanesulfonamide (triflamide) CF3SO2NH2 with 2,3-dimethylbuta-1,3-diene (2) and 2,5-dimethylhexa-2,4-diene (3) in the oxidative system (t-BuOCl+NaI) results in the formation of 2,4-dimethyl- or 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-3,6-bis(triflyl)diazabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane through two successive heterocyclizations. Reaction of diene (3) with arenesulfonamides ArSO2NH2 (Ar=Ph, Tol), stops at the formation of the product of oxidative 1,4-addition, N,N′-(2,3-dimethylbut-2-ene-1,4-diyl)diarenesulfonamides, providing evidence of the essential difference between the reactivity of triflamide and arenesulfonamides.
