A Novel Palladium-Mediated Coupling Approach to 2,3-Disubstituted Benzo[b]thiophenes and Its Application to the Synthesis of Tubulin Binding Agents
摘要:
[GRAPHICS]Flexible, convergent access to 2,3-disubstituted benzo[b]thiophenes has been developed. The most concise approach involves sequential coupling of o-bromoiodobenzenes with benzylmercaptan and zinc acetylides to give benzyl o-ethynylphenyl sulfides which react with iodine to give 3-iodobenzo[b]thiophenes in a 5-endo-dig iodocyclization. These iodides can be further elaborated using palladium-mediated coupling and/or metalation techniques. This method has been applied to the synthesis of some novel tubulin binding agents.
