Macrocyclic pyrimidine compounds, compositions comprising such compounds, methods for making the compounds, and methods of treating and preventing the progression of diseases, conditions, and disorders using such compounds and compositions are described herein.
A general gamma-C(sp(2))-H iodination method directed by an aliphatic keto group has been developed under transition-metal-free conditions for the first time, generating iodoarenes in good to excellent yields with excellent site selectivity. This protocol features a wide range of aryl-substituted ketones, short reaction times, mild reaction conditions, and scalable synthetic procedures. A possible reaction mechanism was also proposed based on several control experiments.
