Re/Mg Bimetallic Tandem Catalysis for [4+2] Annulation of Benzamides and Alkynes via C-H/N-H Functionalization
摘要:
A rhenium-magnesium cocatalyzed [4+2] annulation of benzamides and alkynes via C-H/N-H functionalization is described. The reaction features a divergent and high level of diastereoselectivities, which are readily switchable by subtle tuning of reaction conditions. Thus, a wide range of both cis- and trans-3,4-dihydroisoquinolinones is expediently synthesized in a highly atom-economical manner. Moreover, mechanistic studies unraveled a tandem mode of action between rhenium and magnesium in the catalytic cycles.

Bond activation in action: Unprecedented ruthenium‐catalyzed oxidative annulations of alkynes through cleavage of CH bonds set the stage for an efficient 1(2H)‐isoquinolone synthesis with ample scope (see scheme; tAm=tert‐amyl). Mechanisticstudies provided strong evidence for a rate‐limiting CH bond metalation through carboxylate assistance.
