A gold-catalyzed synthesis of 1,3-dihydrooxazolo[3,4-a]indoles from 1-oxo-3-yn-4-ols and nitrones is described; this new bicyclic annulation presents the first examples that internal alkynes can react with nitrones to undergo an oxoarylation route. DFT calculations indicate a [3,3]-sigmatropic shift of initial alkenylgold intermediates to elude the intermediacy of gold carbenes. We also developed new [3+2]-annulations of the same 1-oxo-3-yn-4-ols with imines, yielding oxazolidin-4-ylidene derivatives efficiently. The tethered alcohols of these 1-oxo-3-ynes allow trapping of their metastable 2-azadienium intermediates to enable a novel annulation. Our mechanistic analysis indicates that the two products, despite their structural relevance, are produced from two independent systems. (Figure presented.).

Using a commercially available, inexpensive, and abundant copper catalyst system, an efficient α-functionalization of nitroalkanes with propargyl bromides is now established. This mild and robust method is highly functional group tolerant and provides straightforward access to complex secondary and tertiary homopropargylic nitroalkanes. Moreover, the utility of these α-propargylated nitroalkanes is demonstrated through downstream functionalization to biologically relevant, five-membered N-heterocycles such as pyrroles and 2-pyrrolines.

Enantioselective hydrogenation of furans and benzofurans remains a challenging task. We report the hydrogenation of 2- and 3-substituted furans by using iridium catalysts that bear bicyclic pyridine-phosphinite ligands. Excellent enantioselectivities and high conversions were obtained for monosubstituted furans with a 3-alkyl or 3-aryl group. Furans substituted at the 2-position and 2,4-disubstituted furans proved to be more difficult substrates. The best results (80-97% conversion, 65-82% enantiomeric excess) were obtained with monosubstituted 2-alkylfurans and 2-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furan. Benzofurans with an alkyl substituent at the 2- or 3-position also gave high conversions and enantioselectivity, whereas 2-aryl derivatives showed essentially no reactivity. The asymmetric hydrogenation of a 3-methylbenzofuran derivative was used as a key step in the formal total synthesis of the cytotoxic naphthoquinone natural product (-)-thespesone.

We developed a palladium-catalyzed carbonylative Sonogashira reaction with aryl triazenes and alkynes as substrates and methanesulfonic acid as the additive. A series of α,β-ynones were synthesized by this alternative procedure. Notably, bromides, iodides

An efficient and facile electrophilic iodocyclization for the synthesis of various O-, N-, and S-containing dihaloheterocycles has been developed. A wide range of the substituted propargyl alcohols having -OH, -NTs, and -SAc functional groups reacted with molecular iodine or bromoiodine at ambient temperature to produce the corresponding dihalogenated O-, N-, and S-containing five- and six-membered heterocycles in good to high yields; Under optimized solvent conditions, the reactions of various substituted but-2-yn-1-ones bearing -OH, -NTs, and -SAc functional groups at C4-position, with iodine or bromoiodine at ambient temperature afforded the corresponding 3,4-diiodo- and 3-bromo-4-iodo-substituted furans, pyrroles, and thiophenes in good to high yields. Further transformation of the resulting iodine- or bromine-containing products to polyaromatics potentially of useful as organo-material intermediates has been investigated.

A new synthesis of 2-aminothiazoles and 5H-thiazolo[ 3,2-α]pyrimidin- 5-ones was developed as a domino alkylation-cyclization reaction of propargyl bromides with thioureas and thiopyrimidinones, respectively. Domino reactions were performed under microwave irradiation leading to desired compounds in a few minutes and high yields. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
53. Acid-Catalyzed Cyclization Rections of Substituted Acetylenic Ketones: A New Approach for the Synthesis of 3-Halofurans, Flavones, and Styrylchromones

Acetylenic acetals of type I (Scheme 1) and acetylenic ketones of type III (Scheme 1), 37 and 38 (Scheme 7) are versatile synthetic precursors for the synthesis of various heterocycles by acid-catalyzed cyclization reactions.By this way, substituted 3-halofurans of type II and IV (Scheme 1) and flavones and styrylchromones (Scheme 7) can be synthesized in good-to-excellent yields.The high degree of regioselectivity in the synthesis of the 3-halofurans (Scheme 4) is the result of the regioselective β-addition of HX (X = Cl, Br, I) to the acetylenic aldehyde and acetylenic ketone moieties.A possible mechanism is depicted in Scheme 5.Since 3-halofurans can easily be metalated and substituted, this approach constitutes a new synthesis of highly substituted furans.
