Three-Component Strategy toward 5-Membered Heterocycles from Isocyanide Dibromides.

A three-component strategy starting from isocyanides allows a straightforward synthesis of five-membered ring heterocycles. New cascades were developed involving the addition of a nitrogenated nucleophilean azide or a tetrazoleon isocyanide dibromides, an electrocyclization, and a Suzuki coupling, which afford new accesses to tetrazole and triazole scaffolds.
