- Synthesis of Indenones Via Palladium-Catalyzed Carbonylation with Mo(CO)6 as a CO Surrogate
-
Transition-metal-catalyzed carbonylation of alkynes has emerged as a powerful engine for the synthesis of indenone compounds. Herein, we reported the development of an effective Pd-catalyzed ligand-free carbonylation of o-bromoaryl iodides with alkynes to afford indenone compounds. A broad range of functional groups on o-bromoaryl iodides and alkynes were tolerated in this protocol, giving carbonylation products. Furthermore, considering the factors of safety and operability, Mo(CO)6 was introduced into the reaction as a carbonyl source. Mechanistic investigations suggested that the reaction proceeded through sequential oxidative addition, alkyne insertion, carbonyl insertion, and reductive elimination steps to produce the observed carbonylation indenone products. Moreover, the indenones obtained with Mo(CO)6 as a CO surrogate can be functionalized to form synthetic useful derivatives via an environmentally friendly way.

- Synthesis of Indenones via Palladium-Catalyzed Ligand-Free Carbonylation
-
A palladium-catalyzed ligand-free carbonylation reaction has been developed for the synthesis of indenones. Under CO atmosphere, this cascade reaction proceeded smoothly to provide the desired indenones in moderate to excellent yields with good functional-group compatibility. The mechanistic investigations suggested the in situ formation of palladium nanoparticles and this transformation was driven by a controlled reaction sequence of alkyne insertion followed by carbonylation and annulation to form the indenone framework. (Figure presented.).

- An Approach to One-Pot Regioselective Synthesis of Indenones through Palladium-Catalyzed Annulation in Water
-
A one-pot synthesis of indenones is presented. The process involves palladium-catalyzed annulation of ortho-halobenzaldehydes with internal alkynes. Notably, it proceeded successfully in water as the sole, and green, solvent. Significantly, unlike in earlier reports, this protocol showed excellent regioselectivity with unsymmetrical alkylarylacetylenes. Further, the strategy was extended to a one-pot synthesis of a neolignan natural product.

- Synthesis of 2,3-disubstituted indenones by cobalt-catalyzed [3+2] annulation of: O -methoxycarbonylphenylboronic acid with alkynes
-
Treatment of alkynes with o-methoxycarbonylphenylboronic acid in the presence of a cobalt catalyst resulted in the corresponding 2,3-disubstituted indenones in good yields. Excellent regioselectivities were observed, when silyl aryl alkynes were used. The intermediate 3-silyl-2-aryl-substituted indenones were converted to 2,3-diaryl indenones by a three-step protocol involving C-Si bromination and Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction.

- Gold-Catalyzed Ammonium Acetate Assisted Cascade Cyclization of 2-Alkynylarylketones
-
An ammonium acetate assisted gold-catalyzed cascade cyclization reaction of 2-alkynylarylketones is described. Under the reported conditions, a gold-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of 2-alkynylarylketones takes place through two competing reaction mechanisms?-?a 5-exo-dig or a 6-endo-dig cyclization-leading to two regioisomeric intermediates: isobenzofuranium or isobenzopyrylium. In the presence of ammonium acetate, the two intermediate compounds undergo further rearrangement to 2,3-disubstituted indenones and 1,3-disubstituted isoquinolines, respectively. While both reaction pathways proceed via a cyclization-rearrangement cascade, the gold-mediated 5-exo-dig process is especially notable, as it provides a novel cyclization protocol of 2-alkynylarylketones.

- Sigmatropic Rearrangements of 1,1-Diarylindenes. Migratory Aptitudes of Aryl Migration in the Ground and Electronically Excited States
-
The photochemical and thermal rearrangements of 1,1-diarylindenes to give 2,3-diarylindenes have been investigated.Migratory aptitudes of p-X-phenyl vs. phenyl were determined for X =Br,CN, and OCH3 in the photochemical and thermal migrations.The identities of the products of these rearrangements were established by unambiguous synthesis, and the synthetic work is described.Product ratios were generally determined by NMR techniques, but VPC and isotope dilution were also used in the case of 1-(p-cyanophenyl)-1-phenylindene reactions.The excited-state reactions (direct and triplet sensitized) are highly selective, migration of the substituted phenyl group being favored for all three substituents.The thermal reactions, in contrast, are quite unselective, phenyl migrating almost as readily as the substituted phenyl group in all cases.Quantum yields for the rearrangement in the case of 1,1-diphenylindene and 1-(p-cyanophenyl)-1-phenylindene were 0.80 and 0.4, respectively (direct irradiation), and 0.43 and 0.53 (sensitized reactions).The results of the thermal reactions and results from the literature are discussed in terms of bond-dissociation energies and transition-state-delocalization energies calculated by using the Hueckel theory.Neither approach led to a satisfactory interpretation.The excited-state migrations are consistent with charge-transfer stabilization of the transition state, which can be estimated from oxidation and reduction potentials by using Weller's equation.
