Ketenimines represent an important class of reactive species, useful synthetic intermediates, and synthons. However, in general, ketenimines preferentially undergoes nucleophilic addition reactions with hydroxyl and amino groups, and carbon functional groups remain a less studied subset of such systems. Herein, we develop a straightforward syntheses of pyridin-4(1H)-imines that is achieved by cyclization of a reacting enaminone unit with αacylketenimine which is generated from the reactions of sulfonyl azides and terminal ynones in situ (CuAAC/Ring cleavage reaction). The cascade process preferentially starts with the nucleophilic α-C of the enaminone unit instead of an amino group, attacking the electron-deficient central carbon of ketenimine, and the chemoselectivity unconventional products pyridin-4(1H)-imines were formed by intramolecular cyclization.
