Metal-Free Electrocyclization at Ambient Temperature: Synthesis of 1-Arylcarbazoles
摘要:
An efficient novel protocol for the construction of an hyellazole-inspired compound collection is described. Starting from 2,6-diarylacetanilides, the desired products were obtained using hypervalent iodine promoted electrocyclization. The mechanism of product formation was investigated through intramolecular competition experiments.
