Synthesis of indolequinones via a Sonogashira coupling/cyclization cascade reaction
摘要:
A mild strategy for constructing indolequinone motifs is described on the basis of the Sonogashira reaction and a copper-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization cascade reaction. The first step involves the palladium- and copper-catalyzed reaction between halogenated naphthoquinone and terminal acetylene to generate a coupling product, which then reacts in a copper-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization with the nitrogen functional group adjacent to the carbon-carbon triple bond.

In this paper, a concise one-pot method for the construction of benzo[f]indole-4,9-dione motifs is described. These transformations proceed via a sequential palladium- and copper-catalyzed coupling reaction of 1,4-naphthoquinones with terminal acetylenes, followed by a copper-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization reaction of the resulting coupling product.
