Substitution of the Benzotriazolyl Group in N-(α-Amidoalkyl)benzotriazoles and N-(α-Sulfonamidoalkyl)benzotriazoles with Allylsamarium Bromide

Abstract

The nucleophilic substitution of the benzotriazolyl group in the N-(α-benzotriazol-1-ylalkyl)amides and N-(α-benzotriazol-1-ylalkyl) sulfonamides with allylsamarium bromide was investigated, and the corresponding homoallylamides or homoallylsulfonamides were obtained in good to excellent yields.

Keywords:
