An environmentally benign and operationally simple one-pot approach to the regioselective tandem synthesis of diversely substituted fused benzimidazo[2,1-a]isoquinolines, naphthyridines, thienopyridines, and quinoxalines from o-alkynylaldehydes and arylamines with tethered nucleophiles using AgI as catalyst in water is described. The reaction showed selective N-C bond formation on the more electrophilic alkynyl carbon, resulting in the regioselective 6-endo-dig cyclized products in good to excellent yields. The proposed mechanistic pathway for the synthesis of fused heterocycles proceeding through formation of ring A prior to ring B, which formed through a second intramolecular attack of the nitrogen onto the alkynyl carbon, was supported by mechanistic experiments and X-ray crystallographic studies of isolated intermediate U and cyclized product 5a. Comparative experiments showed the viability of intramolecular nucleophilic attack over intermolecular attack of an external nucleophile. This catalytic, green protocol has been efficiently applied for the bis-tandem cyclization in water. An eco-friendly, one-pot cascade approach to benzimidazoles and quinoxalines in water using AgNO 3 as catalyst from o-alkynyl aldehydes and amines with tethered nucleophiles, has been developed. Selective 6-endo-dig regioselectivity and structural diversity are accomplished in good yields with a range of substrates. X-ray crystallographic studies and mechanistic experiments are also presented. Copyright

Chemoselective behavior of iodine in different solvents in the electrophilic iodocyclization of o-alkynyl aldehydes is described. o-Alkynyl aldehydes 3a-t on reaction with I2 in CH2Cl2 with appropriate nucleophiles provides pyrano[4,3-b]quinolines 4a-f, via formation of cyclic iodonium intermediate Q; however, using alcohols as a solvent as well as nucleophile, o-alkynyl esters 5a-y were obtained selectively in good to excellent yields via formation of hypoiodide intermediate R. Subsequently, o-alkynyl esters were converted in to pyranoquinolinones 6a-i and isocoumarin 6j by electrophilic iodocyclization. This developed oxidative esterification provides a novel access for the chemoselective synthesis of esters 5q-u from aldehydes 3n-p without oxidizing primary alcohol present in the substrate.
