Pd-Catalyzed Isocyanide Assisted Reductive Cyclization of 1-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)-propargyl Alcohols for 2-Alkyl/Benzyl Benzofurans and Their Useful Oxidative Derivatization
摘要:
An unusual Pd-catalyzed isocyanide assisted 5exo-dig reductive cyclization of 1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-propargyl alcohols is achieved for 2-alkyl/benzyl benzofurans. The reaction features a high substrate scope, insensitivity to air, and excellent product yielding. Further, a direct metal-free C-H functionalization (azidation, alkoxylation, and hydroxylation) and selective oxidative cleavage of thus synthesized 2-benzylfurans are described for azido-, alkoxy-, hydroxyl-, amide-, and tetrazolyl adducts.

A catalyst composed of [Pd(η(3)-C3H5)Cl]2 and N,N,N',N'-tetra(diphenylphosphinomethyl)pyridine-2,6-diamine (L) was found to be effective for one-pot synthesis of 2-substitutedbenzo[b]furansfrom 2-halophenols and alkynes. For 2-bromo-3-hydroxypyridine, the catalyst loading could be as low as 1 ppm and the turnover number (TON) was up to 870,000.
