Abstract

Various 1-azaazulenes are synthesized from cycloheptatrienylmethyl ketone O-pentafluorobenzoyloximes by treatment with a catalytic amount of Pd(dba) 2-t-Bu3P (dba = dibenzylideneacetone) and triethylamine in the presence of MS 4A via alkylideneaminopalladium(II) intermediates generated by oxidative addition of the oximes to a Pd(0) complex.
