Intramolecular Pd-Mediated Processes of Amino-Tethered Aryl Halides and Ketones: Insight into the Ketone α-Arylation and Carbonyl-Addition Dichotomy. A New Class of Four-Membered Azapalladacycles
摘要:
An exploration of the scope and limitations of Pd(0)-catalyzed intramolecular coupling reactions of amino-tethered aryl halides and ketones has been conducted. Two different and competitive reaction pathways starting from omega-(2-haloanilino) alkanones, enolate arylation and addition to the carbonyl group, have been observed, while (omega-(2-halobenzylamino) alkanones exclusively underwent the enolate arylation process. The dichotomy between ketone alpha-arylation and carbonyl-addition in the reactions of omega-(2-haloanilino) alkanones has been rationalized by the intermediacy of unprecedented four-membered azapalladacycles, from which X-ray data and chemical behavior are reported.

Indoles from scratch: A gold(I)/N‐heterocyclic carbene complex (IPr=1,3‐di(isopropylphenyl)imidazol‐2‐ylidene) was found to be particularly effective as a catalyst, enabling the one‐pot synthesis of tricyclic azepinoindoles by an unprecedented cascade reaction. Readily available substrates, high chemoselectivity, good yields, and water as the only stoichiometric by‐product are some of the main advantages
