Abstract
Two new visible-light-mediated strategies are described starting from aryldiazoacetates. The first approach describes their reaction with azides to afford the corresponding imines, and then reaction with aryldiazoketones produces alkyl 2-carboxylate-2,3,3-trisubstituted β-lactams. The second approach describes the reaction with sulfoxides to afford the corresponding sulfoxonium ylides, followed by reaction with aryldiazoketones to produce 5-alkoxy-2,2,4-trisubstituted furan-3(2H)-ones. These protocols take advantage of the photolysis of aryldiazoacetates and the photochemically promoted Wolff rearrangement of aryldiazoketones.
