Concerted nucleophilic aromatic substitution (CSNAr) has emerged as a powerful mechanistic manifold, in which nucleophilic aromatic substitution can proceed in one step without the need to form a Meisenheimer intermediate. However, all of the CSNAr reactions reported thus far require a stoichiometric strong base or activating reagent, and no catalytic variants have yet been reported. Herein, we report an N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of acrylamides that contain a 2-fluorophenyl group on the nitrogen through a CSNAr reaction. By using this catalytic method, it is possible to synthesize an array of quinolin-2-one derivatives, which are common structural motifs in pharmaceuticals and organic materials. DFT calculations unambiguously revealed that this reaction proceeds through the concerted nucleophilic aromatic substitution of aryl fluorides, in which a stereoelectronic σ (Cipso-Cβ)→ σ*(Cipso-F) interaction critically contributes to the stabilization of the transition state for the cyclization.

Heck reaction of N-(2-halophenyl)-N-methyl-1-cyclohexene-1carboxamide (1) and 2-bromo-N-methyl-N-phenyl-1-cyclohexene-1-carboxamide (4) using a palladium reagent under several reaction conditions was examined. Reaction of 4 using Pd(OAc)2, DPPP, and Bu3P afforded tetrahydrophenanthridone (5) in excellent yield.
