Straightforward Assembly of Benzoxepines by Means of a Rhodium(III)-Catalyzed C–H Functionalization of o-Vinylphenols
摘要:
Readily available o-vinylphenols undergo a formal (5 + 2) cycloaddition to alkynes when treated with catalytic amounts of [Cp*RhCl2](2) and Cu(OAc)(2). The reaction, which involves the cleavage of the terminal C-H bond of the alkenyl moiety, generates highly valuable benzoxepine skeletons in a practical, versatile, and atom-economical manner. Using carbon monoxide instead of an alkyne as reaction partner leads to coumarin products which formally result from a (5 + 1) cycloaddition.

An unprecedented (5 + 2)-cycloaddition reaction of ortho-hydroxyethyl phenol and internal alkyne was developed. This Rh(III)-catalyzed reaction provided benzoxepine derivatives which have very high biological significance. A wide range of ortho-hydroxyethyl phenols and internal alkynes were studied to provide the benzoxepines in high yields.
