Abstract

A new catalytic reaction in which all the atoms of a formamide are incorporated into the product through a formal stereoselective 1,2-insertion of rhodium(II) azavinyl carbenes, generated in situ from readily available N-sulfonylated 1,2,3-triazoles, into the C=O bond of DMF and other N,N-disubstituted formamides to afford cis-diamino enones is described.
