AZO ANIONS IN SYNTHESIS. PT 1. t-BUTYLHYDRAZONES AS ACYL-ANION EQUIVALENTS

The lithium salts of aldehyde t-butylhydrazones react with electrophiles (aldehydes, ketones, alkyl halides, crotonates) to form C-trapped t-butylazo-compounds; tautomerisation and hydrolysis gave α-hydroxy ketones, ketones, and γ-keto esters in good yield, thereby providing a convenient new acyl-anion equivalent.Reaction of these lithium salts with aldehydes and ketones, followed by elimination provided a new route to azo alkenes.
