Cobalt-Catalyzed Enantioselective Directed C–H Alkylation of Indole with Styrenes
摘要:
A cobalt-chiral phosphoramidite catalyst promotes enantioselective imine-directed C2-alkylation of Boc-protected indoles with styrenes. The reaction affords 1,1-diarylethane products in moderate to good yields with good enantioselectivities under mild conditions. A deuterium-labeling experiment suggests that the enantioselectivity is controlled by both the styrene insertion and the C-C reductive elimination steps.
Synthesis of Ellipticine: A Radical Cascade Protocol to Aryl- and Heteroaryl-Annulated[b]carbazoles
摘要:
Imidoyl selanides, synthesized from amides, have been used as radical precursors of imidoyl radicals in cascade reactions. The novel radical cascade has been developed for the simple synthesis of the medicinally important aryl-annulated[b]-carbazoles. The protocol has been exemplified with the high-yielding total synthesis of the anticancer alkaloid ellipticine.
