Recent development of reactions with alpha-diazocarbonyl compounds as nucleophiles.
The nucleophilic addition reaction of diazo-compound derived anions or enolates with electrophilic C=O and C=N bonds have been summarized. The subsequent reactions of the addition products demonstrate diverse reactivities of the diazocarbonyl compounds bearing other functional groups and their potential in organic synthesis. Asymmetric catalysis is also possible with diazocarbonyl compounds as nucleophiles.
