Non-fluorinated vinyldiazo compounds with trans-configuration irrespective of the nature of 3-R-1-substituent (R-1 = H, Me, TBSO) even under ambient conditions easily cyclize to produce pyrazoles, while cis-stereoisomers undergo similar ring closure only at elevated temperatures or decompose to produce vinyloxocarbene reaction products. The 3-CF3-substituted analogues with cis- or trans-configuration do not produce pyrazoles at all, but on heating furnish only vinylcarbene derived products. DFT calculations of theoretical energy barriers adequately explain the different experimental reactivity found for stereo-isomeric vinyldiazocarbonyl compounds, and a new model for their interconversion through the corresponding pyrazoles has been suggested.
