Iron-Catalyzed Reductive Cyclization by Hydromagnesiation: A Modular Strategy Towards N-Heterocycles
Larin, Egor M.,Lautens, Mark,Loup, Joachim
, p. 22345 - 22351 (2021/09/09)
A reductive cyclization to prepare a variety of N-heterocycles, through the use of ortho-vinylanilides, is reported. The reaction is catalyzed by an inexpensive and bench-stable iron complex and generally occurs at ambient temperature. The transformation likely proceeds through hydromagnesiation of the vinyl group, and trapping of the in situ generated benzylic anion by an intramolecular electrophile to form the heterocycle. This iron-catalyzed strategy was shown to be broadly applicable and was utilized in the synthesis of substituted indoles, oxindoles and tetrahydrobenzoazepinoindolone derivatives. Mechanistic studies indicated that the reversibility of the hydride transfer step depends on the reactivity of the tethered electrophile. The synthetic utility of our approach was further demonstrated by the formal synthesis of a reported bioactive compound and a family of natural products.

A one-pot, three-component protocol for the synthesis of 1,2,3-trisubstituted indoles has been developed, based upon a Fischer indolisation-indoleN-alkylation sequence. This procedure is very rapid (total reaction time under 30 minutes), operationally straightforward, generally high yielding and draws upon readily available building blocks (aryl hydrazines, ketones, alkyl halides) to generate densely substituted indole products. We have demonstrated the utility of this process in the synthesis of 23 indoles, benzoindoles and tetrahydrocarbazoles bearing varied and useful functionality.

We describe the development of a new method for construction of highly substituted indole scaffolds through the strategic utilizing of the metathesis of Ar-X σ-bonds based on the dynamic nature of palladium-based oxidative addition/reductive elimination. A suitable and simple catalytic system has provided an appropriate platform for a productive ligand exchange and consecutive carbopalladation/C-H activation/amination of phosphine ligands with alkynes and aromatic/aliphatic amines for construction of structurally diverse indoles.

, p. 1613 - 1618 (2020/09/15)
A palladium(II)-catalyzed direct 2-arylation of indoles by tetraarylstannanes with oxygen (balloon) as the oxidant at room temperature has been developed. Various tetraarylstannanes can be employed as aryl sources for 2-arylation of indoles in up to 89% yield, providing a practical and efficient catalytic protocol for accessing 2-arylindoles.

Yang, Pengfei,Xu, Weiyan,Wang, Rongchao,Zhang, Min,Xie, Chunsong,Zeng, Xiaofei,Wang, Min
, p. 3658 - 3662 (2019/05/17)
An efficient and facile method to synthesize valuable disubstituted 2-aryl indoles and benzofurans in good yields has been demonstrated, based on a tert-butoxide-mediated condensation reaction involving a vinyl sulfoxide intermediate. Products are obtained from N- or O-benzyl benzaldehydes using dimethyl sulfoxide as a carbon source. The methodology features a wide functional group tolerance and transition metal-free environment. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that the reaction involves a tandem aldol reaction/Michael addition/dehydrosulfenylation/isomerization sequence through an ionic protocol.
A Fast Track to Indoles and Annulated Indoles through ortho- vs ipso-Amination of Aryl Halides
Jafarpour, Farnaz,Ghasemi, Mehran,Mohaghegh, Farid,Asgari, Sara,Habibi, Azizollah
supporting information, p. 10143 - 10148 (2019/12/24)
A complementary site selective ortho- vs ipso-amination of aryl halides using non-electrophilic amine sources for construction of indole scaffolds is reported. A palladium-catalyzed alkyne insertion/C-H activation/palladacycle amination via merger of three easily diversified components including iodoarenes, alkynes, and amines delivers indoles with different substitution patterns even in gram scales. By employing ortho-bromoanilines, a consecutive annulative π-extension of indoles proceeds to construct indolo[1,2-f]phenanthridine scaffolds via four C-C and C-N bond formations in one pot.

Visible light induced photoredox catalysis is an efficient method for radical activation. Herein, we report the photoredox catalysis involving an intramolecular radical-radical coupling reaction that proceeds through a biradical intermediate. This protocol represents a new synthetic route to construct multi-substituted N-heterocycles. Four, five and six-membered N-heterocyclic structures with a quaternary carbon center are accessible under mild conditions.

The invention provides a method for synthesizing an indole compound. The method comprises the following steps of adding alkali into 2-acyl-N,N-disubstituted phenylamine which serves as a raw material under the protection of nitrogen, and heating the mixture in a solvent to obtain the high-yield indole compound. The raw material is readily available, and the method is convenient to operate, short in reaction time and high in reaction yield, and has high practical value for the industrial preparation of the indole compound.
3-Methyl-2-phenyl-1-substituted-indole derivatives as indomethacin analogs: Design, synthesis and biological evaluation as potential anti-inflammatory and analgesic agents
Abdellatif, Khaled R. A.,Lamie, Phoebe F.,Omar, Hany A.
, p. 318 - 324 (2016/02/03)
In a new group of 3-methyl-2-phenyl-1-substituted-indole derivatives (10a-f), the indomethacin analogs were prepared via the Fisher indole synthesis reaction of propiophenone with appropriately substituted phenylhydrazine hydrochloride. This is followed by the insertion of the appropriate benzyl or benzoyl fragment. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory (in vitro and in vivo) and analgesic activities. The methanesulphonyl derivatives 10d, e and f showed the highest anti-inflammatory (in vitro and in vivo) and analgesic activities. In addition, molecular docking studies were performed on compounds 10a-f and the results were in agreement with that obtained from the in vitro COX inhibition assays. The significant anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities exhibited by 10d and 10e warrant continued preclinical development as potential anti-inflammatory and analgesic agents.
