A metal-free aromative cascade for the synthesis of diverse heterocycles.

ABSTRACT: A metal-free aromative cascade has been developed for the synthesis of diverse heterocycles from readily accessible hydroxy/aminochalcones and acid/alkyl halides. The cascade being by a base-mediated intramolecular aldol cyclization/dehydration sequence to provide a triene, which sets the stage for a 6π-electrocyclization/oxidative aromatization to access diverse heterocyclic scaffolds.

Mechanistically diverse copper-, silver-, and gold-catalyzed acyloxy and phosphatyloxy migrations: efficient synthesis of heterocycles via cascade migration/cycloisomerization approach.

Project description:A set of cycloisomerization methodologies of alkynyl ketones and imines with concurrent acyloxy, phosphatyloxy, or sulfonyloxy group migration, which allow for the efficient synthesis of multisubstituted furans and N-fused heterocycles, has been developed. Investigation of the reaction course by way of employing 17O-labeled substrates allowed for elucidation of the mechanisms behind these diverse transformations. It was found that, while the phosphatyloxy migration in conjugated alkynyl imines in their cycloisomerization to N-fused pyrroles proceeded via a [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement, the analogous cycloisomerization of skipped alkynyl ketones proceeds through two consecutive 1,2-migrations, resulting in an apparent 1,3-shift, followed by a subsequent 1,2-migration through competitive oxirenium and dioxolenylium pathways. Investigations of the 1,2-acyloxy migration of conjugated alkynyl ketones en route to furans demonstrated the involvement of a dioxolenylium intermediate. The mechanism of cycloisomerization of skipped alkynyl ketones containing an acyloxy group was found to be catalyst dependent; Lewis and Brønsted acid catalysts caused an ionization/SN1' isomerization to the allene, followed by cycloisomerization to the furan, whereas transition metal catalysts evoked a Rautenstrauch-type mechanistic pathway. Furthermore, control experiments in the cycloisomerization of skipped alkynyl ketones under transition metal catalysis revealed that, indeed, these reactions were catalyzed by transition metal complexes as opposed to Brønsted acids resulting from hydrolysis of these catalysts with eventual water. Further synthetic utility of the obtained phosphatyloxy-substituted heterocycles was demonstrated through their efficient employment in the Kumada cross-coupling reaction with various Grignard reagents.

Empowering Transition-Metal-Free Cascade Protocol for the Green Synthesis of Biaryls and Alkynes.

Project description:The work being presented in this paper demonstrates the simple and efficient "transition-metal-free" and "light-mediated" synthetic protocol for the synthesis of aryl iodides/biaryls/alkynes from aryl bromides. Under ultraviolet irradiation and in basic aqueous media, aryl bromides undergo transformation into aryl iodides which efficiently couple via a cascade reaction with a wide range of terminal alkynes/unactivated arenes to generate target molecules under green conditions.

Synthesis of polycyclic nitrogen heterocycles via alkene aminopalladation/carbopalladation cascade reactions.

Project description:A new method for the synthesis of tricyclic nitrogen heterocycles from N,2-diallylaniline derivatives is described. These transformations proceed via sequential alkene aminopalladation of an intermediate L(n)Pd(Ar)(NRR') species followed by alkene carbopalladation of the resulting L(n)Pd(Ar)(R) complex. Both alkene insertion steps occur in preference to C-N or C-C bond-forming reductive elimination. An unusual 1,3-palladium shift occurs when 2-Allyl-N-(2-vinylphenyl)aniline is employed as substrate, which yields a tetracyclic molecule with three contiguous stereocenters.

Demonstration of Green Solvent Performance on O,S,N-Heterocycles Synthesis: Metal-Free Click Chemistry and Buchwald-Hartwig Coupling.

Project description:The development of new and greener approaches to organic synthesis has been a trend in recent years. Continuing the latest publications of our team, in this work, we demonstrate the efficiency of three solvents: eucalyptol (1,8-cineole), cyclopentyl methyl ether (CPME), and 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (2-MeTHF) for the synthesis of O,S,N-heterocyclic compounds.

Synthesis of Tris-Heterocycles via a Cascade IMCR/Aza Diels-Alder + CuAAC Strategy.

Project description:6-Triazolylmethyl-pyrrolo[3,4-b]pyridin-5-one tris-heterocycles were synthesized in 43-57% overall yields. The two-stage synthesis involved a cascade process (Ugi-3CR/aza Diels-Alder/N-acylation/aromatization) followed by a copper-assisted alkyne-azide [3+2] cycloaddition (CuAAC). This efficient and convergent strategy proceeded via complex terminal alkynes functionalized with a fused bis-heterocycle at the α-position. The final products are ideal candidates for SAR studies as they possess two privileged scaffolds in medicinal chemistry: 4-substituted or 1,4-substituted 1H-1,2,3-triazoles and pyrrolo[3,4-b]pyridin-5-ones.

Metal-free intermolecular formal cycloadditions enable an orthogonal access to nitrogen heterocycles.

Project description:Nitrogen-containing heteroaromatic cores are ubiquitous building blocks in organic chemistry. Herein, we present a family of metal-free intermolecular formal cycloaddition reactions that enable highly selective and orthogonal access to isoquinolines and pyrimidines at will. Applications of the products are complemented by a density functional theory mechanistic analysis that pinpoints the crucial factors responsible for the selectivity observed, including stoichiometry and the nature of the heteroalkyne.

Site-selective and metal-free C-H nitration of biologically relevant N-heterocycles.

Project description:The site-selective and metal-free C-H nitration reaction of quinoxalinones and pyrazinones as biologically important N-heterocycles with t-butyl nitrite is described. A wide range of quinoxalinones were efficiently applied in this transformation, providing C7-nitrated quinoxalinones without undergoing C3-nitration. From the view of mechanistic point, the radical addition reaction exclusively occurred at the electron-rich aromatic region beyond electron-deficient N-heterocycle ring. This is a first report on the C7-H functionalization of quinoxalinones under metal-free conditions. In contrast, the nitration reaction readily takes place at the C3-position of pyrazinones. This transformation is characterized by the scale-up compatibility, mild reaction conditions, and excellent functional group tolerance. The applicability of the developed method is showcased by the selective reduction of NO2 functionality on the C7-nitrated quinoxalinone product, providing aniline derivatives. Combined mechanistic investigations aided the elucidation of a plausible reaction mechanism.

Green and Facile Assembly of Diverse Fused <i>N</i>-Heterocycles Using Gold-Catalyzed Cascade Reactions in Water.

Project description:The present study describes an AuPPh?Cl/AgSbF?-catalyzed cascade reaction between amine nucleophiles and alkynoic acids in water. This process proceeds in high step economy with water as the sole coproduct, and leads to the generation of two rings, together with the formation of three new bonds in a single operation. This green cascade process exhibits valuable features such as low catalyst loading, good to excellent yields, high efficiency in bond formation, excellent selectivity, great tolerance of functional groups, and extraordinarily broad substrate scope. In addition, this is the first example of the generation of an indole/thiophene/pyrrole/pyridine/naphthalene/benzene-fused N-heterocycle library through gold catalysis in water from readily available materials. Notably, the discovery of antibacterial molecules from this library demonstrates its high quality and potential for the identification of active pharmaceutical ingredients.

Metal-free formal synthesis of phenoxazine.

Project description:A transition metal-free formal synthesis of phenoxazine is presented. The key step of the sequence is a high-yielding O-arylation of a phenol with an unsymmetrical diaryliodonium salt to provide an ortho-disubstituted diaryl ether. This species was cyclized to acetylphenoxazine in moderate yield. The overall yield in the three-step sequence is 72% based on recovered diaryl ether. An interesting, unusually stable iodine(III) intermediate in the O-arylation was observed by NMR and could be converted to the product upon longer reaction time.
