Synthesis of 2- and 2,3-Substituted Pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridines: Scope and Mechanistic Considerations of a Domino Direct Alkynylation and Cyclization of N-Iminopyridinium Ylides Using Alkenyl Bromides, Alkenyl Iodides, and Alkynes
摘要:
Direct functionalization and tandem processes have both received considerable recent interest due to their cost and time efficiency. Herein we report the synthesis of difficult to obtain 2-substituted pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridines through a tandem palladium-catalyzed/silver-mediated elimination/direct functionalization/cyclization reaction involving N-benzoyliminopyridinium ylides. As such, these biologically important molecules are prepared in an efficient, high-yielding manner, only requiring a two-step sequence from pyridine. Aryl-substituted alkenyl bromides and iodides are effective ylide coupling partners. Mechanistic studies led to the use of terminal alkynes, which extended the scope of the reaction to include alkyl substitution on the unsaturated reactive site. The optimization, scope, and mechanistic considerations of the process are discussed.

A simple and regiospecific aminohydroxylation of olefins by photoredoxcatalysis has been developed. N‐protected 1‐aminopyridinium salts are the key compounds and serve as amidyl radical precursors by the action of Ir photocatalysts, fac‐[Ir(ppy)3] and [Ir(ppy)2(dtbbpy)](PF6) (ppy=2‐pyridylphenyl, dtbbpy=4,4′‐di‐tert‐butyl‐2,2′‐bipyridine). The present photocatalytic system allows for synthesis of
Here we describe a metal-free amino-heteroarylation of unactivatedolefins via organic photoredox catalysis, providing a concise and efficient approach for the rapid synthesis of various δ (β, ε)-amino ketones under mild conditions. This protocol demonstrates that the new photocatalyst Cz-NI developed by our group has an excellent photoredox catalytic performance. Finally, a series of mechanistic experiments
