Ruthenium-catalyzed cycloisomerizations of aromatic homo- and bis-homopropargylic amines/amides efficiently afford indoles, dihydroisoquinolines and dihydroquinolines. These processes were regioselective (5- and 6-endo cyclizations) on using key Ru vinylidene intermediates. The presence of an amine/ammonium base-acid pair increased the rate of cyclization and facilitated the catalytic turnover. Copyright

Indoles, dihydroisoquinolines, and dihydroquinolines were efficiently prepared by ruthenium-catalyzed heterocyclizations of aromatic homo- and bis-homopropargyl amines/amides in the presence of an amine/ammonium base-acid pair. These regioselective 5-endo and 6-endo cyclizations most probably occur by nucleophilic trapping of key ruthenium-vinylidene intermediates. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart · New York.
