Copper-catalyzed cyclization of an oxime ester toward divergent heterocycle synthesis is reported. Oxime ester serves as an enamine precursor to cyclize with malononitrile and aldehydes for access to 2-aminonicotinonitriles in a one-pot reaction, while cyclizing with N-sulfonylimines leads to synthesis of pyrazolines.
