MCRs reshaped into a switchable microwave-assisted protocol toward 5-aminoimidazoles and dihydrotriazines
摘要:
A tunable microwave-assisted protocol for the synthesis of two biologically relevant families of heterocycles has been designed. Via a simple switch of reaction conditions, the same starting materials can be engaged in either an improved synthesis of the dihydrotriazine scaffold or a novel, first-in-class MCR to render the challenging 5-aminoimidazole nucleus in a single step. An additional first-in-class MCR is also reported utilizing guanidines to afford 2,5-aminoimidazoles. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
multi-component method to form imidazoles using cyclic amidines. In order to expand the scope of this reaction, we have explored the GBBR with acyclic amidines. We found that the acyclic amidine, benzamidine performed similarly to cyclic amidines with the electronics of the aldehyde having a significant influence on reaction yield. Other acyclic amidines including guanidine were less successful however the
