Abstract

TosMIC, a versatile synthon in organic chemistry, has been extensively used for the synthesis of a wide variety of small, medium and large ring heterocycles. It has immense implications in the synthesis of nitriles, aldehydes, ketones, alkanes, cyclophanes and large number of natural products. Several drug intermediates and pharmacologically active compounds have been synthesized from TosMIC. In addition, chiral TosMIC analogs have been synthesized and employed for synthesis of optically active compounds.
