C–H Bond Functionalization Under Metalation–Deprotonation Process: Regioselective Direct Arylation of 3-Aminoimidazo[1,2-a]pyrazine
摘要:
Concerted metalation deprotonation (CMD) approach with appropriate proton shuttle precursor, base, and solvent (PivOH-K2CO3-toluene) has rendered a regioselective Pd-catalyzed C6-arylation of 3-aminoimidazo[1,2-a]pyrazine, a therapeutically relevant scaffold accessible by multicomponent reaction. The arylation of this heteroarene suffers from competing C5 and C2'-arylation reactions, while the developed process has virtually eliminated these competing arylations. Density functional calculations for CMD C-H activation at C6, C5, C8, and C2' sites imply that the energy barrier with distortion energy penalty as major contributing component influences the regioselectivity.
