A simple, efficient, regioselective and one-pot preparation of N-hydroxy- and N–O-protected hydroxyindoles via cycloaddition of nitrosoarenes with alkynes. Synthetic scope, applications and novel by-products
摘要:
The thermal reaction between nitrosoarenes and alkynes under alkylating conditions produces N-alkoxyindoles as the major products in moderate to good yields and excellent regioselectivity. Various electrophiles are used affording different N-O-protected hydroxyindoles in a multi-component fashion. Privileged acetylenic substrates used in reactions with substituted nitrosoarenes are arylalkynes or propiolates. Potentially bioactive compounds and other classes of highly functionalizable indole products were prepared. Reactions between D-carbomethoxy-nitrosoarenes and arylacetylenes provided tricyclic compounds containing an acylaziridine indoline skeleton. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
