CuCN-Mediated Cascade Cyclization of 4-(2-Bromophenyl)-2-butenoates: A High-Yield Synthesis of Substituted Naphthalene Amino Esters
摘要:
A new method of CuCN-mediated one-pot cyclization of 4-(2-bromophenyl)-2-butenoates leading to efficient synthesis of substituted naphthalene amino esters including phenanthrene aromatic structural units is described. Deuterium labeling studies establish that this one-pot cascade cyclization proceeds through isomerization of olefin, intramolecular C-C bond cyclization, and aromatization as the key intermediates, all occurring in a single step.

β,γ-Unsaturated carbonyl compounds serve as versatile building blocks in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry. Herein we reported the synthesis of β,γ-unsaturated carbonyl compounds from tetrafluoropyridine sulfides with vinyl halides. This cross-coupling reaction takes the advantage of photocatalysis, as well as zinc catalysis, which is preferred due to its less-toxic, earth abundant, and cost-effective
