An interesting alternative in using diols, but starting from 3,4-dihydroxythiophene-2,5-dicarboxylic acid diethyl ester (the same intermediate as used in the Gogte pathway above), was developed independently by the groups of Reynolds [25] and Bauerle [26], who utilized the Mitsunobu reaction with azodicarboxylic acid ester-phosphane as the etherification agent. 

To prepare fervenulin 4-oxides 12 or toxoflavine 4-oxides 146, it is convenient to use the reaction of l,3-dimethyl-2,4-dioxopyrimidin-6-yl hydrazone 147 or N-(3-methyl-2,4-dioxopyiimidin-6-yl) iV-methylhydrazone 148 with potassium nitrate in acetic acid [75CPB1885,76CPB338,76JCS(CC)658,82JHC1309,93CPB362]. Diethyl azodicarboxylate can be used instead of potassium nitrate [76JCS(P1 )713]. 

In an initial step triphenylphosphine adds to diethyl azodicarboxylate 5 to give the zwitterionic adduct 6, which is protonated by the carboxylic acid 2 to give intermediate salt 7. The alcohol reacts with 7 to the alkoxyphosphonium salt 8 and the hydrazine derivative 9, and is thus activated for a SN2-reaction ... 

The Mitsunobu reaction was also applied to the synthesis of [ 1,2,4]triaz-ino[4,5-n]indoles (84AG517). Thus, reaction of the 2-acylindoles 127 with sodium borohydride in methanol or with lithium aluminium hydride in tetrahydrofuran gave the corresponding alcohols 128. Their cyclization with diethyl azodicarboxylate in the presence of triphenyl-phosphine gave the triazinoindoles 129. Acid treatment of the latter afforded 130 (Scheme 30). 

Treatment of 6-arylidenehydrazino-3-alkyl-5-nitrouracils 510 with etha-nolic KOH caused a benzylic acid type of rearrangement to give 511, which were alkylated to give 512, whose cyclization with diethyl azodicar-boxylate gave (80H1295) 513 by intramolecular cycloaddition through valence isomerization and then aromatization with diethyl azodicarboxylate (Scheme 107). 

Cydization of P-hydroxy-a-amino esters under Mitsunobu reaction conditions is an alternative approach to aziridine-2-carboxylic esters [6b, 13-16], In this case the P-hydroxy group is activated by a phosphorus reagent. Treatment of Boc-a-Me-D-Ser-OMe 13 (Scheme 3.5) with triphenylphosphine and diethyl azodicarboxylate (DEAD), for example, gave a-methyl aziridinecarboxylic acid methyl ester 14 in 85% yield [15]. In addition to PPh3/DEAD [13b, 15], several other reagent combi-... 

Acyclic ADC compounds, which are more correctly named as derivatives of diazene, are generally prepared from hydrazine derivatives. For example, diethyl azodicarboxylate (Chemical Abstracts name diethyl diazene-1,2-dicarboxylate)5 is prepared from hydrazine by treatment with ethyl chloro-formate followed by oxidation with chlorine in benzene-water.6 Other oxidants which have been used include JV-bromosuccinimide,7 nitric acid,8 inorganic nitrates,9 potassium dichromate,10 silver carbonate on celite,11 and phenyl iodosotrifluoroacetate.12 The hydrazine derivative may also be... 

The reactivity of compound 113 toward reactive linear and cyclic dienophiles was reported in a study directed to find a model systems for the proposed [4+2] cycloaddition in the biosynthesis of the natural products brevianamides, paraherquamides, and marcfortines. With DMAD and diethyl azodicarboxylate the formation of 114 and 115 was almost quantitative after 48 h at 80 °C (Cbz = Carbobenzyloxygroup). When relatively unreactive dienophiles such as cyclopentene and cyclohexene were used, harsh reaction conditions and/or a Lewis acid catalyst are necessary for the formation of 116a and 116b (Scheme 16). In contrast, the analogous intramolecular reaction carried out on compound 117 takes place within a few hours at room temperature, even in the absence of a Lewis acid catalyst, to give 118 in 42% yield (Scheme 16) <2000T6345>.

PyBOP was purchased from Novabiochem. 

Attack on Nitrogen. A variety of cyclic derivatives of phosphorous acid have been converted into spirophosphoranes (51), using diethyl azodicarboxylate as the condensing agent,42 probably by initial addition to nitrogen to give (50). Several... 

In a 1-1., three-necked, round-bottomed flask equipped with a constant-pressure dropping funnel, a mechanical stirrer, and a reflux condenser is placed 174 g. (1.0 mole) of ethyl azodicarbox-ylate in 150 ml. of ether. Freshly prepared cyclopentadiene (70 g., 1.06 moles) is added dropwise over a 1-hour period to the stirred ethereal solution of diethyl azodicarboxylate. During the addition a gentle reflux is maintained by external cooling with an ice-water bath as needed. When the addition is complete, the reaction mixture is allowed to stand for 4 hours, or less if the yellow color of the azodicarboxylic acid ester disappears. I he dropping funnel and condenser are replaced by a glass stoj)pcr and a short distillation head, respectively. The ether and unreactcd diene are distilled off on a steam bath and the... 

THF, -78 °C) gave a 10 1 mixture of (+)-230 to (+)-229. Column chromatography (silica gel) afforded pure (+)-230 in 82 % yield. Treatment of (+)-230 with diethyl azodicarboxylate/triphenylphosphine/benzoic acid, followed by saponification (MeOH, MeONa), yielded (+)-229 in 85 % yield . The enantiomeric forms (-)-229 and (-)-230 can be derived in a similar way from Our approach is, in... 

Diphenylphosphoryl azide reacts with alcohols in the presence of triphenylphosphine and diethyl azodicarboxylate.45 Hydrazoic acid, HN3, can also serve as the azide ion source under these conditions.46 These reactions are examples of the Mitsunobu reaction discussed earlier.
