Abstract

An allenyl imide and alkynoates bearing good leaving groups are used as ketene precursors in tandem conjugate addition-elimination reactions promoted by nucleophilic phosphine catalysts. By utilizing thioamides as 1S,3N-bis-nucleophiles, [3+3] and [3+2] annulations provide rapid access to 1,3-thiazin-4-ones and 5-alkenyl thiazolones in high yields, respectively.
