Preparation of N-substituted phthalimides by the palladium-catalyzed carbonylation and coupling of o-dihalo aromatics and primary amines
摘要:
A novel method for the formation of N-substituted phthalimides is described which is based on the palladium-catalyzed carbonylation and coupling of o-dihalo aromatics and primary amines. Optimal conditions established for the reaction using o-diiodobenzene and aniline were DMAc (0.2 M), 115-degrees-C, 90 psi of CO, 3% PdCl2L2, and 2.4 equiv of DBU. This process is tolerant of a wide variety of functional groups and gives good yields of the desired products. Variables such as temperature, catalyst type and loading, CO pressure, solvent, and base were examined to optimize this reaction. The reaction of aniline with 1,2-dibromocyclopentene under similar conditions gave a variety of products.
The unprecedented transformation of a wide range of synthetically appealing phthalimides into amides in a single-step operation has been achieved in high yields and short reaction times using a ruthenium catalyst. Mechanistic studies revealed a unique, homogeneous pathway involving five-membered ring opening and CO2 release with water being the source of protons.

A rhodium(III)‐catalyzed amidation between benzoicacids and isocyanates via direct functionalization of an ortho CH bond followed by intramolecular cyclization is described. This cascadecyclization affords N‐substituted phthalimides in one step in 26–91% yields. The reaction is highly atom‐economical, since no theoretical waste except for water is generated in the reaction.
We report on cyclicimides as weak directing groups for selective monohydroxylation reactions using ruthenium catalysis. Whereas acyclic amides are known to promote the hydroxylation of the C(sp2)–H bond enabling five-membered ring ruthenacycle intermediates, the cyclicimides studied herein enabled the hydroxylation of the C(sp2)–H bond via larger six-membered ruthenacycle intermediates.

An efficient and facile protocol for the synthesis of biologically and pharmaceutically important phthalimides is developed by l-proline-catalyzed reaction between two dienophiles of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and maleimides. The reaction involves an efficient benzannulation that proceeds via a formal [4 + 2] cycloaddition of azadiene intermediates generated in situ from enals and N-substituted maleimides
intermolecular [3 + 2] annulation pathway for aromatic acids with isocyanates to afford N-substituted phthalimide in one step is demonstrated, which provides an efficient process to direct preparation of phthalimidefrom commercially available starting materials and environmentally benign catalysts. This cascadecyclization involves the direct functionalization of an ortho C–H bond and the subsequent
