Gold-Catalyzed Reactions of 2-Alkynyl-phenylamines with α,β-Enones
摘要:
The gold-catalyzed reaction of 2-alkynyl-phenylamines with alpha,beta-enones represents a new general one-pot entry into C-3-alkyl-indoles by sequential reactions. Gold-catalyzed sequential cyclization/alkylation, N-alkylation/cyclization, or N-alkylation/cyclization/alkylation reactions leading to different indoles can be directed by changing the 2-alkynyl-phenylamine 1/alpha,beta-enone 3 ratio and the reaction temperature. Unusual gold-catalyzed rearrangement reaction of indoles are observed at 140 degrees C. New gold-catalyzed formation of propargyl-alkyl ether under mild conditions and the hydration reaction of N-acetyl-2-ethynyl-phenylamine are reported.
3-Unsubstituted indoles undergo regioselective alkylation at the 3-position of the indole nucleus throughgold-catalyzed conjugated addition type reaction with α,β-enones. 3-Substituted indoles undergo C-2 alkylation. Sequential C-3/C-2 gold catalyzed alkylation of the indole with dibenzylidene acetone gives a polycyclic indole b-annulated with a seven-membered cycle.
3-未取代的吲哚通过金催化的与α,β-烯酮的共轭加成反应在吲哚核的3-位发生区域选择性烷基化。3-取代的吲哚经历 C-2 烷基化。用二亚苄基丙酮对吲哚进行连续的 C-3/C-2 金催化烷基化得到多环吲哚 b 环,并具有七元环。
