N-Allenyl cyanamides have been accessed via a
one-pot deoxycyanamidation–isomerization approach using propargyl
alcohol and N-cyano-N-phenyl-p-methylbenzenesulfonamide. The utility of this novel class
of allenamide was explored through derivatization, with hydroarylation,
hydroamination, and cycloaddition protocols employed to access an
array of cyanamide products that would be challenging to access using
existing methods.
