Photo-induced Molecular Transformations, Part 123. One-Step Synthesis of 1H-Benzindole-4,9-diones by a New Regioselective Photoaddition of 2-Amino-1,4-naphthoquinone with Various Alkenes and Its Application to the One-Step Synthesis of Kinamycin Skeleton

2,3-Dihydro-1H-benzindole-4,9-diones are formed in one-step in 45-82percent yields by an unprecedented -type regioselective photoaddition of 2-amino-1,4-naphthoquinone with various electron-rich alkenes and the adducts derived from aminonaphthoquinone with vinyl ethers and vinyl acetate to give 1H-benzindole-4,9-diones including a benzindole-dione with a kinamycin skeleton in 33-72percent yields.A probable pathway leading to the formation of the dihydroindole-dione involving air oxidation of an intermediary hydroquinone is proposed.

Irradiation of 2-amino-1,4-naphthoquinone and excess of vinylarenes such as styrene, its para-substituted derivatives, 2-vinylpyridine and 4-vinylpyridine in benzene with a Pyrex-filtered light at room temperature under nitrogen gave 1-aryl-1,2,2a,8b-tetrahydro-8b-hydroxycyclobutanaphthalene-3,4-diones as a single product in 23-63percent yields, respectively.These cyclobutanols arise from an unprecedented stereo- and regio-selective photoaddition of an excited enol form of 2-amino-1,4-naphthoquinone with the vinylarenes.Irradiation of these cyclobutanols in benzene containing excess of mercury(II) oxide and iodine with Pyrex-filtered light then gave 2-aryl-2,3-dihydronaphthofuran-4,5-diones and/or 2-aryl-2,3-dihydronaphthofuran-4,9-diones (31-73percent yields) arising from a regioselective β-scission of the alkoxyl radicals, followed by intramolecular cyclization of the resulting radical intermediates.The substitution at the para position of the 1-phenyl group was found to control the ratio of the two types of products: a methoxy group directs the formation of the 4,5-dione exclusively, while the p-cyano group directs the formation of the 4,9-dione exclusively.This considerable dependence of the products on the substituents suggests that at least some part of the formation of the dihydrofuran ring of the 4,5 and/or 4,9-diones takes place from the ionic intermediates arising owing to β-scission. 2,3-Dihydronaphthofuran-4,5-dione was found to isomerize to 2,3-dihydrofuran-4,9-dione on silica gel.
