Sulfoximine-Directed Ruthenium-Catalyzed ortho-C–H Alkenylation of (Hetero)Arenes: Synthesis of EP3 Receptor Antagonist Analogue
摘要:
The reusable sulfoximine directing-group-assisted Ru(II)-catalyzed chemo- and regioselective ortho-C-H alkenylation of arenes and heteroarenes with acrylates and alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones/vinyl sulfone is shown. The N-aroyl sulfoximine undergoes annulation with diphenylacetylene, delivering isoquinolinones and methyl phenyl sulfoxide. The present protocol is successfully employed for the synthesis of the EP3 receptor antagonist analogue.
