A helically twisted imine macrocycle that allows for determining the absolute configuration of α-amino carboxylates

Binding of α-amino carboxylates to a helically twisted imine macrocycle based on the indolocarbazole scaffold gives rise to characteristic circular dichroism spectra, and the patterns of the Cotton effects are consistent with the absolute configuration of

Palladium-Catalyzed Aminomethylative Oppolzer-Type Cyclization of Enynes: Access to Aminomethylated Benzofulvenes

A novel palladium-catalyzed Oppolzer-type cyclization reaction aided by the aminomethyl cyclopalladated complex has been developed, which provides rapid access to functionalized benzofulvenes with excellent stereoselectivity. The corresponding products can undergo Diels–Alder reaction with maleimides, providing a series of complex polycyclic compounds with excellent regio- and stereoselectivities.

A Gold(I)-Catalyzed Tandem Cyclization to Benzo[b]indeno[1,2-e][1,4]diazepines from o-Phenylenediamines and Ynones

A gold-catalyzed tandem cyclization of o-phenylenediamines with ynones to synthesize benzo[b]indeno[1,2-e][1,4]diazepine has been developed. The mechanism was explored by control experiments. The method provides a way to access a range of benzo[b]indeno[1,2-e][1,4]diazepine derivatives in diversity-oriented synthesis aiming at discovering structurally diverse scaffolds. (Figure presented.).

Palladium-catalyzed chemoselective aminomethylative cyclization and aromatizing allylic amination: Access to functionalized naphthalenes

A palladium-catalyzed chemoselective aminomethylative cyclization and aromatizing allylic amination of enyne-tethered allylic alcohols with aminals is described. Under the reaction conditions, the cationic vinyl allylpalladium species undergoes selective migratory insertion of alkenes rather than reductive elimination with nucleophiles. This strategy provides an efficient and unique approach to the construction of functionalized naphthalenes, which are important building blocks in synthetic organic chemistry. Mechanistic studies have revealed that the selective sequential migratory insertion of enyne and alkene is crucial for the cyclization.

De Novo Synthesis of Phenols and Naphthols through Oxidative Cycloaromatization of Dienynes

In this work, a rhodium-catalyzed oxidative cycloaromatization of dienynes, which provides a highly straightforward and efficient way to access polysubstituted naphthols and phenols under mild conditions, is described. Challenged electron-withdrawing groups are well tolerated in this protocol, and late-stage phenyl ring formation is demonstrated.

Dual Gold Catalysis: Synthesis of Fluorene Derivatives from Diynes

1,5-Diyne systems bearing one terminal and one benzyl- or allyl-substituted alkyne attached to an aromatic backbone were converted in the presence of a gold catalyst. In a dual gold-catalyzed process, gold vinylidenes are formed that selectively undergo formal CH insertion into the C(sp2)–H bond of the offered unsaturated systems. If H atoms are present in the propargylic position, a subsequent isomerization to the aromatic system takes place leading to 9H-fluorene and 11H-benzo[b]fluorene derivatives as final products. In the case of a quaternary carbon in the propargylic position no further aromatization is observed and 10H-benzo[b]fluorene derivatives are obtained in high yield. (Figure presented.).

Stereoselective Synthesis of Oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptenes via a Tandem Dirhodium(II)-Catalyzed Triazole Denitrogenation and [3 + 2] Cycloaddition

A novel synthetic strategy for the diastereoselective synthesis of structurally diverse oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptenes has been developed, featuring a tandem reaction combining a Rh-catalyzed triazole denitrogenation and a novel type of [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction. This tandem reaction was thought to proceed via a five-membered oxonium ylide intermediate, which was formed by the intramolecular nucleophilic attack of the carbonyl group on the α-imino metallocarbene followed by an inter- or intramolecular [3 + 2] dipolar cycloaddition with a range of alkynes and alkenes.

Gold superacid-catalyzed preparation of benzo[c]thiophenes

A three-step synthesis of benzo[c]thiophenes is presented in which the key transformation is the gold-catalyzed 5-exo-dig migratory cycloisomerization of a diallyl thioacetal. It was shown that a small amount of in situ generated HAuCl4 from AuCl3 is the active catalytic species. A mechanism was proposed.

Indium(III)-Catalyzed Cyclization of Aromatic 5-Enynamides: Facile Synthesis of 2-Aminonaphthalenes, 2-Amino-1H-indenes, and 2,3-Dihydro-1H-indeno[2,1-b]pyridines

Indium(III)-catalyzed cyclization reactions of aromatic 5-enynamides were studied. Indium triflate enabled the efficient synthesis of 2-aminonaphthalenes and 2-amino-1H-indenes from aromatic N-methyl-N-tosyl-ynamides bearing an ortho-vinyl and -isobutenyl group, respectively. The aromatic N-3-arylpropargylynamides bearing an ortho-gem-dihalovinyl subunit underwent a tandem cyclization/carbobromination reaction in the presence of indium tribromide to provide the dibrominated 2,3-dihydro-1H-indeno[2,1-b]pyridine derivatives in good yields.

Au(i)-catalyzed triple bond alkoxylation/dienolether aromaticity-driven cascade cyclization to naphthalenes

A novel strategy for the synthesis of multisubstituted naphthalenes was developed via a Au(i)-catalyzed alkyne alkoxylation/dienolether aromaticity-driven cascade cyclization using 1,5-enyne substrates. The functional group toleration was examined by synthesizing a series of substrates and the mechanism was also studied based on intermediates isolated through deuterium labeling experiments.
