Pd-Catalyzed Isocyanide Assisted Reductive Cyclization of 1-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)-propargyl Alcohols for 2-Alkyl/Benzyl Benzofurans and Their Useful Oxidative Derivatization
摘要:
An unusual Pd-catalyzed isocyanide assisted 5exo-dig reductive cyclization of 1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-propargyl alcohols is achieved for 2-alkyl/benzyl benzofurans. The reaction features a high substrate scope, insensitivity to air, and excellent product yielding. Further, a direct metal-free C-H functionalization (azidation, alkoxylation, and hydroxylation) and selective oxidative cleavage of thus synthesized 2-benzylfurans are described for azido-, alkoxy-, hydroxyl-, amide-, and tetrazolyl adducts.

A general and practical method to synthesize 2-substituted benzofurans and indoles is described. This method employs easily accessible N-tosylhydrazones and o-hydroxy or o-amino phenylacetylenes as substrates. The reaction proceeds through a CuBr-catalyzed coupling–allenylation–cyclization sequence under ligand-free conditions.
