Mild Regiospecific Synthesis of 1-Alkoxy-isochromenes Catalyzed by Well-Defined [Silver(I)(Pyridine-Containing Ligand)] Complexes
摘要:
The synthesis of 3-substituted-1-alkoxyisochromenes starting from 2-alkynylbenzaldehydes and different alcohols is reported. The reaction is catalyzed by a silver(1) complex with an original macrocyclic pyridine-containing ligand. The approach is characterized by absolute regioselectivity, mild reaction conditions, good to excellent reaction yields, cleanness of the reaction, and reduced purification steps. The reaction mechanism was investigated by in-depth H-1 NMR experiments and an aimed "trapping" experiment.

remarkably general method for the synthesis of cyclic alkenyl ethersvia the Cu(I)-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of O-alkynylbenzaldehydes has been developed. The survey of metal catalysts and solvents revealed that the combination of copper(I) iodide and DMF was the catalytic system of choice. The reaction most probably proceeds via the nucleophilic addition of alcohols 2 to O-alkynylbenzaldehydes
