Abstract
SnAP (Sn (tin) amine protocol) hydrazine reagents and aldehydes undergo oxidative, copper mediated coupling to form substituted 1,4,5‐oxadiazepanes and 1,2,5‐triazepanes. Unlike all prior reactions involving SnAP reagents, the SnAP hydrazine reagents undergo a molecular oxygen‐assisted oxidative cyclization. The air‐ and moisture tolerant transformation accommodates a broad range of groups including electron‐rich, electron‐poor aromatic, heteroaromatic, and aliphatic aldehydes and is amenable to gram scale synthesis. These unusual, chiral heterocycles have unexpectedly large optical rotations, which may find use in optical materials.
