An efficient method for the one‐pot synthesis of substituted phenanthridinone derivatives from N‐methoxybenzamides and aryltriethoxysilanes through rhodium‐catalyzed dual CHbondactivation and annulation reactions is described. A double‐cycle mechanism is proposed to account for this catalytic reaction. In addition, isotope‐labeling studies were performed to understand the intimate mechanism of the
General solution: An efficient rhodium‐catalyzed dual CH bond activation and cyclization of N‐methoxybenzamides 1 with aryl boronic acids 2 (see scheme; Cp*=Me5C5) provides a straightforward and general approach to the phenanthridinone structure, which occurs widely in natural products and drugs. Highly regioselective CC and CN bond formation under mild conditions afforded a wide range of substituted
通用解决方案:有效的铑催化的双CH键活化和N-甲氧基苯甲酰胺1与芳基硼酸2的环化(参见方案; Cp * = Me 5 C 5)提供了一种直接而通用的方法用于菲咯啶酮结构,广泛存在于天然产物和药物中。在温和条件下形成高度区域选择性的CC和CN键可提供广泛的取代菲啶酮3。

synthesis of phenanthridinones from N-methoxybenzamides using an oxidative C–H amidation reaction at room temperature in open air with modest to excellent yields. This method demonstrated unprecedented substrate scope. In particular, it solved the long-standing challenge in the synthesis of phenanthridinones with stericallydemanding substitutions.
