A Rh(III)-catalyzed annulation between salicylaldehydes and diazo compounds with controllable chemoselectivity is described. AgNTf2 favored benzofurans via a tandem C–H activation/decarbonylation/annulation process, while AcOH led to chromones through a C–H activation/annulation pathway. The reaction exhibited good functional group tolerance and scalability. Moreover, only a single regioisomer of benzofuran
描述了Rh(III)催化的水杨醛和重氮化合物之间具有可控的化学选择性的环化反应。AgNTf 2通过串联的C–H活化/脱羰/环化过程有利于苯并呋喃,而AcOH通过C–H活化/环化途径生成色酮。该反应表现出良好的官能团耐受性和可扩展性。此外,由于原位脱羰取向作用,仅获得了单一的苯并呋喃的区域异构体。
