Synthesis of furano[2,3-c]pyran-3-one and thieno[2,3-c]pyran-3-one derivatives through the coupling of 3-alkynyl-2-heteroaromatic carboxaldehydes with fischer carbene complexes: Total synthesis of a Baccharis-derived cadinene derivative

The coupling of Fischer carbene complexes with 3-alkynyl-2-heteroaromatic carboxaldehyde derivatives has been examined. The reaction affords pyrones fused to furans or thiophenes in a single step. The compounds are stable enough for isolation. If the carbene complex features a remote alkene substituent, a subsequent Diels-Alder reaction can occur. This reaction has been used as the key step in the synthesis of a naturally occurring cadinene derivative.

Exploiting Hydrazones to Improve the Efficiency of 6π-Electrocyclization Reactions of 1-Azatrienes

The greater geometric lability of hydrazones compared to that of oxime ethers is used as a basis to overcome the reluctance of Z-oxime ether azatrienes to undergo electrocyclization toward the synthesis of borylated (heteroaromatic) pyridines and ring-fused analogues. Such hydrazones now allow access to previously inaccessible tri- and tetrasubstituted 3-borylpyridines in high yields.

Iodine-mediated electrophilic cyclization of 2-alkynyl-1-methylene azide aromatics leading to highly substituted isoquinolines and its application to the synthesis of norchelerythrine

The reaction of 2-alkynyl-1-methylene azide aromatics 1 with iodine and/or other iodium donors, such as the Barluenga reagent (Py2IBF 4/HBF4) and NIS, gave highly substituted cyclization products, namely, the 1,3-disubstituted 4-iodoisoquinolines 2, in good to high yields. Not only simple 2-alkynyl benzyl azides 1a-j and their substituted analogues 1k-u and 6 but also heteroaromatic analogues, including pyridine 8, pyrroles 10a-c, furane 10d, and thiophenes 10e-g, gave the corresponding isoquinoline derivatives in excellent to allowable yields. Electron-donating and electron-accepting substituents on the aromatic ring were equally tolerated, and either acidic or basic (or even neutral) reaction conditions, depending on the reactivity of the substrate, could be applied to smoothly convert the azide starting materials into the desired isoquinoline products in moderate to good yields. Limits were found only in connection with the substituent at the alkyne terminus, where electron-neutral or electron-donating substituents are clearly favored. The iodine-mediated electrophilic cyclization of 1 most probably proceeds through the iodonium ion intermediate 4 followed by nucleophilic cyclization of the azide and subsequent elimination of N2. This new methodology was successfully applied to the short synthesis of norchelerythrine.

A versatile aminobenzannulation method based on the deprotonation of 2-(1-alkynyl)-benzaldimines and similar 2-aza-2,4-heptadienyl-6-ynes: A multistep rearrangement cascade

Two ring closures, a ring opening, and two intermolecular proton shifts are the crucial steps in a cascade reaction that is triggered by the simple deprotonation of alkynylimines and leads ultimately to aminobenzannulation products (see scheme). The reactions proceed in good to very good yield and with excellent chemoselectivity.
