Complementary Heterogeneous/Homogeneous Protocols for the Synthesis of Densely Functionalized Benzo[<i>d</i>]sultams: C−C Bond Formation by Intramolecular Nucleophilic Aromatic Fluorine Displacement
from the corresponding open chain (pentafluorobenzene)sulfonamides 4 by complementary solid-liquid phase transfer catalysis (SL-PTC) and homogeneous protocols. The cyclization step proceeds through the intramolecular nucleophilic displacement of an aromatic fluorine atom.
of phenylglycinol derivatives with terminal and internalalkynes directed by picolinamide auxiliary has been developed. This method offers an efficient and highly regioselective route for the synthesis of 1-hydroxymethyltetrahydroisoquinolines. The reaction employs commercially available Co(II) catalyst in the presence of Mn(III) cooxidant and oxygen as a terminal oxidant, and proceeds with full preservation
An efficient method for the synthesis of 3-hydroxymethyl isoindolinones via cobalt-catalyzed C(sp2)–H carbonylation of phenylglycinol derivatives using picolinamide as a traceless directing group is demonstrated. The reaction proceeds in the presence of a commercially available cobalt(II) tetramethylheptanedionate catalyst and employs DIAD as a “CO” surrogate. This synthetic route offers a broad substrate
