Highly Efficient CuI-Catalyzed Coupling of Aryl Bromides with Oxazolidinones Using Buchwald's Protocol: A Short Route to Linezolid and Toloxatone
摘要:
[GRAPHICS]Coupling of a variety of substituted aryl bromides with oxazolidinones has been achieved using the Buchwald protocol for the amidation of aryl halides. This procedure is exemplified by the synthesis of two medicinally important molecules, linezolid and toloxatone.
An electrochemical synthesis of functionalized (aza)indolinesthrough dehydrogenative [3+2] annulation of arylamines with tethered alkenes has been developed. Previous reported syntheses through similar inter‐ and intramolecular annulation reactions required noble‐metal catalysts and are mostly limited to terminal alkenes or 1,3‐dienes. The electrosynthesis employs the easily available and inexpensive
important amidyl radicals from N−H amides is an appealing and yet challenging task. Previous methods require a stoichiometric amount of a strong oxidant and/or a costly noble‐metal catalyst. We report herein the first electrocatalytic method that employs ferrocene (Fc), a cheap organometallic reagent, as the redox catalyst to produce amidyl radicals from N‐aryl amides. Based on this radical‐generating

CuI/N,N-dimethylglycine catalyzed coupling of aryl bromides with substituted oxazolidinones took place at 120 degrees C in DMF, affording the corresponding N-arylation products with good to excellent yields. A number of functional groups, such as ketone, nitrile, nitro, methoxy, and hydroxyl were tolerated under these conditions, thereby allowing diversity synthesis of N-aryloxazolidinones.
