A facile and efficient method to produce optically pure benzofuroindolines, especially those without 3‐substituents that are susceptible to rearomatization, through [3+2] annulation of indoles with quinones is described. The suitable combination of a BOX ligand CuII hydrate complex and freshly activated molecular sieves functions to give controllably dynamic release of water, which enables the success
描述了一种简便有效的方法,可通过吲哚与吲哚的[3 + 2]环化生产光学纯的苯并呋喃二氢吲哚,特别是没有3-取代基的苯并呋喃二氢吲哚。BOX配体Cu II水合物和新鲜活化的分子筛的适当组合可起到可控地动态释放水的作用,从而使该反应成功。该反应可以以克规模进行,催化剂负载量仅为0.5mol%。
