- A Hg(OTf)2-Catalyzed Enolate Umpolung Reaction Enables the Synthesis of Coumaran-3-ones and Indolin-3-ones
-
The potential of mercury catalysis has been extended to the arena of enolate umpolung reactions for the first time by the generation of enolonium species via Hg(OTf)2-catalyzed N-oxide addition to alkynes. The enolonium species formed can undergo intramolecular nucleophilic attack by hydroxyl or amino groups, leading to the synthesis of various coumaran-3-ones and indolin-3-ones.

- Catalytic synthesis method of 3-benzofuranone compound
-
The invention discloses a catalytic synthesis method of a 3-benzofuranone compound. The catalytic synthesis method comprises the following steps: dissolving a 2-acetenyl phenol derivative into a solvent dichloromethane at normal temperature and normal pressure according to a molar volume ratio of the 2-acetenyl phenol derivative to the dichloromethane of 1:5mmol/mL, so as to obtain a dichloromethane solution of the 2-acetenyl phenol derivative; then adding mercury trifluoromethanesulfonate and pyridine-N-oxide into a dichloromethane solution of the 2-ethynylphenol derivative, wherein the molaramounts of mercury trifluoromethanesulfonate and pyridine-N-oxide are respectively 5% and 120% of the molar amount of the 2-ethynylphenol derivative; and then performing stirring for 1 hour at room temperature, and performing reacting to generate the 3-benzofuranone compound. The market price of the catalyst mercury trifluoromethanesulfonate used in the catalytic synthesis method is lower than 30yuan/g, the cost is low, the operation is simple, the reaction time is short, the reaction conditions are mild, the reaction yield is high, and the yield can reach 91.0-96.0%.
