Copper-Catalyzed Intramolecular Oxidative CH Functionalization and CN Formation of 2-Aminobenzophenones: Unusual Pseudo-1,2-Shift of the Substituent on the Aryl Ring
A good move: A copper‐catalyzed intramolecular oxidative CH functionalization of 2‐aminobenzophenone affords two regioisomeric acridones (see scheme). The reaction involves an unusual pseudo‐1,2‐migration of R2 group(s) on the arene ring (bpy=2,2′‐bipyridine, DMAc=dimethylacetimide).
Synthesis of 10-Methylacridin-9(10<i>H</i>)-ones through Cu-Catalyzed Intramolecular Oxidative C(sp<sup>2</sup>)-H Amination of 2-(Methylamino)benzophenones
An efficient synthesis of a diverse set of 10-methylacridin-9(10H)-ones from 2-(methylamino)benzophenones has been developed. The reaction proceeds though Cu-catalyzed intramolecular aromatic C–H amination by using O2 as the sole oxidant to provide the desired products in moderate to good yields. In addition, 2-allylamino- and 2-(benzylamino)benzophenones as well as unprotected substrates can also

Abstract2‐Alkylaminophenylprop‐1‐yn‐3‐ols, prepared from the lithium diisopropylamide (LDA)‐mediated 1,2‐addition of alkynes to 1‐(2‐aminophenyl) ketones, can be converted to 3,3‐disubstituted 2‐oxindoles by using silica gel in n‐hexane/ethyl acetate (20:1 v/v) as the reaction medium. The utility of the approach as a potential scale‐up strategy for the synthesis of 2‐oxindoles was exemplified by the large‐scale synthesis of one adduct in excellent yield. The synthetic applicability of this chemistry was also demonstrated by the recycling of the silica gel up to 8 times with no apparent loss of activity being observed for the same example.magnified image
