Generation of 4-iodoisocoumarins through a TBAI-mediated oxidative cyclization of 2-alkynoates
摘要:
A tetra-butylammonium iodide (TBAI)-mediated oxidative iodocyclization of 2-alkynoates for the synthesis of various 4-iodoisocoumarin is described herein, and the reaction is highly efficient and shows broad functional group tolerance. This newly developed reaction uses a mixture of water and DCE as co-solvent, and avoids the use of iodine as iodine source for the electrophilic halocyclization.[GRAPHICS].

A straightforward and traceless solid-phase methodology was developed for the synthesis of isocournarins. This two-step process involves a Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction between polymer-bound 2-bromobenzoates and terminal alkynes, followed by an electrophile-induced halocyclization of the resulting 2-(alk-1-ynyl)benzoates through activation of the triple bond with the subsequent release of the 3-substituted 4-haloisocoumarins. This polymer-bound parallel synthetic approach allowed us to achieve large diversity in good to excellent yields and purities.
