Oxidative Dimerization of 2-Oxindoles Promoted by KOtBu-I2: Total Synthesis of (±)-Folicanthine
摘要:
A transition-metal-free oxidative coupling of 2-oxindoles has been demonstrated in the presence of 1.2 equiv each of potassium tert-butoxide and iodine. The method yields a diverse range of structurally different homo- and heterodimerized 2-oxindoles bearing vicinal all-carbon quaternary centers of great synthetic importance. A radical-driven pathway has been tentatively proposed.

method for synthesis optimization instead of lengthy product isolation, (b) prevention of electrode passivation employing electrocatalysis routes, (c) recovery of the electrolyte, and (d) mild reaction conditions employing control potential electrolysis. Finally, an efficient electrochemical oxidation strategy has been demonstrated for the total synthesis of a dimeric hexahydropyrrolo[2,3-b]indole alkaloids
二聚 3-取代的 2-oxindoles 是生物碱全合成的基本组成部分。在此,三种不同类型的 3-substituted-2-oxindoles 被二聚化,共有 41 个实例使用 TEMPO 作为氧化还原介体和 TEMPO +作为原位生成的电催化剂,使用控制电势电解在仅 0.8 V 的施加电势下与银/银+非水参比电极。在没有 TEMPO 的情况下,这些反应不会产生任何产物形成,保持其他实验条件相同。双电子和单电子转移途径的运作取决于 2-oxindoles 的氧化电位。具有较低氧化能垒的双电子转移途径的 3-Carboxylate-2-oxindoles 遵循氢化物转移机制产生碳阳离子,此后与烯醇形式的羟吲哚反应产生二聚 2-oxindoles。另一方面,与 3-carboxylate-2-oxindoles 相比,3-alkyl-2-oxindoles 和 3-alkylcarboxylate-2-oxindoles
Stereoselective synthesis of C3-tetrasubstituted oxindoles <i>via</i> copper catalyzed asymmetric propargylation
Herein, a copper catalyzed asymmetric propargylation of 2-oxindole-3-carboxylate esters with terminal propargylic esters is described. This strategy successfully provides a direct approach to constructing a broad range of chiral C3-tetrasubstituted oxindoles with contiguous tertiary and quaternary carbon stereocenters in high yields and excellent enantioselectivities (16 examples, up to 99% yield and

An improved procedure for the preparation of ethyl 2-diazomalonyl chloride ws developed which involves the reaction of ethyl diazoacetate with triphosgene. Using this diazo acid chloride, it was possible to prepare a variety of diazoamides from substituted amines. The rhodium(II)-catalyzed decomposition of these diazoamides was studied in order to probe the chemoselectivity of the carbenoid intermediates in intramolecular insertion reactions. Rhodium(II) acetate decomposition of N-benzyl-2-diazo-N-phenylmalonamic acid ethyl ester resulted in intramolecular C-H insertion to give ethyl 1,4-diphenyl-2-oxoazetidine-3-carboxylate. By changing the catalyst ligand to trifluoroacetamide, beta-lactam formation was completely suppressed in favor of the aromatic C-H insertion which produces an oxindole as the only detectable product. The competition between aliphatic and aromatic carbon-hydrogen insertion of 2-diazo-N-phenylmalonamic acid ethyl ester provides another example of ligand effectiveness in controlling chemoselectivity in dirhodium(II)-catalyzed metal carbene reactions. Thus, treatment of the N-isobutyldiazoanilide with rhodium(II) acetate results in exclusive aliphatic C-H insertion giving 4,4-dimethyl-2-oxo-1-phenylpyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester, while the perfluorobutyramide ligand promotes oxidinole formation by aromatic C-H insertion. Several other rhodium(II)-catalyzed reactions were studied and were found to be highly catalyst dependent, rhodium(II) perfluorocarboxamides promoting aromatic C-H insertion, and hence oxindole formation, over O-H insertion, cyclization onto adjacent triple bonds, or cyclization to generate 1,3-dipolar intermediates.

A highly efficient enantioselective Michael reaction of 2-oxindole-3-carboxylate esters with N-maleimides catalyzed by commercially available cinchonidine was described. The desired adducts, containing a quaternary center at the C3-position and a vicinal tertiary center, were obtained in excellent yields (up to 99%), good enantioselectivities (up to 85% ee), and diastereoselectivities (dr>90:10) in the presence of 0.05-5 mol % catalyst loading.
