C–H Activation Guided by Aromatic N–H Ketimines: Synthesis of Functionalized Isoquinolines Using Benzyl Azides and Alkynes
摘要:
Aromatic N-H ketimines were in situ generated from various benzylic azides by ruthenium catalysis for the subsequent Rh-catalyzed annulation reaction with alkynes to give the corresponding isoquinolines. In contrast to conventional synthetic methods for aromatic NH ketimines, our protocol works under mild and neutral conditions, which enabled the synthesis of isoquinolines having various functionalities such as carbonyl, ester, alkenyl, and ether groups. In addition, the imidates generated from alpha-azido ethers were successfully used for the synthesis of 1-alkoxyisoquinolines.
The Rh(III)-catalyzed coupling of N-chloroimines with alkynes for the efficientsynthesis of isoquinolines is reported. This represents the first use of the N-Cl bond of N-chloroimines as an internal oxidant for construction of the isoquinoline skeleton. The synthesis features atom and step economy, a green solvent (EtOH), mild reaction conditions, and a broad substrate scope.2020 Elsevier Ltd. All
Catalysts in a relay: A synthetic method for delivering highly substituted isoquinolines has been developed (see scheme; Cp*=C5Me5, DMF=N,N‐dimethylformamide, TEMPO=2,2,6,6‐tetramethylpiperidine‐1‐oxyl). A preliminary mechanistic study showed that the rhodium and copper cooperate synergistically in the multistep sequence.
