Oxidative Desymmetrization of Isoindolines Realized by tert -Butyl Nitrite (TBN) Initiated Radical sp 3C-H Activation Relay (CHAR)

An oxidative desymmetrization of isoindolines was realized by TBN initiated radical sp 3C-H activation relay (CHAR), providing a series of ω-hydroxylactams in high yields. This reaction exhibits broad substrate scope and functional group tolerance, and even N -alkyl iso-indolines can be well tolerated. The mechanistic study shows that the C-H bond oxidation, dioxygen trapping and intramolecular 1,5-H shift might be the key steps to achieve the oxidative desymmetrization.

Synthesis of 2-Arylisoindoline Derivatives Catalyzed by Reusable 1,2,4-Triazole Iridium on Mesoporous Silica through a Cascade Borrowing Hydrogen Strategy

Covalent attachment of a 1,2,4-triazole iridium complex to mesoporous MCM-41 generated a heterogeneous catalyst that was found to be effective in the synthesis of 2-aryl isoindolines, quinolines, cyclic amines, and symmetrical secondary amines through a cascade borrowing hydrogen strategy. Interestingly, the supported heterogeneous iridium catalyst prepared from the 1,2,4-triazole iridium complex and mesoporous MCM-41 exhibited high catalytic activity in the preparation of 2-aryl isoindoline derivatives and symmetrical secondary amines. The catalyst system is highly recyclable for at least five times. Besides the important effect of the triazole, iridium sites grafted on siliceous supports can act as multifunctional catalytic centers and thus greatly enhance the catalytic activity of the catalysts. Furthermore, mechanistic experiments revealed that the reaction is initiated by an initial alcohol dehydrogenation and promoted by an iridium hydride intermediate. Importantly, the direct detection of a diagnostic iridium hydride signal confirmed that the synthesis of 2-aryl isoindolines occurs by a borrowing hydrogen process. This work provides an efficient example of isoindolines synthesis through a borrowing hydrogen strategy.

Iron-Catalysed Switchable Synthesis of Pyrrolidines vs Pyrrolidinones by Reductive Amination of Levulinic Acid Derivatives via Hydrosilylation

A selective production of pyrrolidines vs pyrrolidinones via hydrosilylation of levulinic acid and levulinates by switching of the iron complex catalyst is presented herein. The reactions proceeded efficiently with various anilines and alkylamines under both visible light irradiation and thermal conditions with 43 examples in isolated yields up to 93%. Noticeably, under similar conditions, cyclic amines such as piperidines and azepanes were efficiently synthesized with yields up to 92%, by reaction of anilines with 1,5- or 1,6-keto acids, respectively. Similarly, N-arylinsolidoline compounds can be prepared from 2-formylbenzoic acid in 57–93% yields. (Figure presented.).

The interaction of 4-hydroxymethyl isoindolines with dehydrobenzene. Synthesis of 3-phenylaminomethyldihydrobenzo[c]furanes

2-Alkyl or 2-aryl-substituted 4-hydroxymethylisoindolines smoothly undergo intramolecular recyclization through reaction with arynes to give isobenzofurans with good yields.

Synthesis of N-aryl substituted, five- and six-membered azacycles using aluminum-amide complexes

Synthesis of N-aryl substituted, five- and six-membered azacycloalkanes, isoindolines and tetrahydroisoquinolines, has been described. In this synthesis, cyclic ethers (n = 1, 2) were treated with dimethylaluminum-amide reagents, derived from a range of aryl amines and trimethylaluminum, to afford the corresponding azacycles in good yields.
