Abstract

The reaction of allyl(furfuryl)amines with aroyl isothiocyanates was studied. The reaction proceeded via an initial nucleophilic addition of the allylamine nitrogen atom to isothiocyanates and a subsequent spontaneous intramolecular Diels–Alder reaction involving the furan ring of intermediate N-allyl-N-furfurylthioureas with the formation of a single diastereomer of 3a,6-epoxyisoindoles.
