Synthesis and (3+2) cycloaddition reactions of N,N ʹ- and C,N-cyclic azomethine imines

  • Published:
Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

This review considers new methods for the synthesis of N,N ʹ- and C,N-cyclic azomethine imines, as well as the most characteristic of their transformations – (3+2)-dipolar cycloaddition reactions. Particular attention was focused on the issues of regio- and stereoselectivity, the effects of the structure of starting materials, solvents, and catalysts on the reaction direction and yields of cycloadducts. The review covers literature data about the chemistry of cyclic azomethine imines published over the previous 10 years. There are 71 references given.
