Development of Pd(OAc)2-catalyzed tandem oxidation of C[sbnd]N, C[sbnd]C, and C(sp3)–H bonds: Concise synthesis of 1-aroylisoquinoline, oxoaporphine, and 8-oxyprotoberberine alkaloids

A catalytic tandem oxidation of C[sbnd]N, C[sbnd]C, and C(sp3)–H bonds is developed. This tandem oxidation is applied to two-step total syntheses of papaveraldine and pulcheotine A. Additionally, the total synthesis of liriodenine is achieved in six steps from homopiperonyl alcohol and 2-bromophenylacetonitrile by applying this catalytic tandem oxidation. Moreover, the direct conversion of xylopinine to 8-oxypseudopalmatine in a 76% yield demonstrates the versatility of this catalytic reaction.

The pyrrole-tethered veratroles 16 and 27 each engage in PIFA-induced oxidative cyclization reactions to give compounds 22 and 29, respectively, which incorporate a key tricyclic fragment associated with the title natural products. In contrast, the corresponding catechols 11 and 12 only produce polymeric materials on subjection to analogous reaction conditions. Efforts to study lactone ring formation by the oxidative cyclization of catechol 30 and veratrole 38 have been thwarted by an inability to prepare the former substrate and decomposition of the latter. The reported conversions 44 ? 45 and 46 ? 47 suggest that a C2-carboxy group attached to the pyrrole ring can ?direct' the oxidative cyclization of N-tethered aryl groups. The acquisition of compound 22 by the means described herein provides an adventitious and concise route to the racemic modification of the pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline alkaloid crispine A (52).

An application of the PIFA-mediated [PIFA: phenyliodine(III) bis(trifluoroacetate) biaryl coupling reaction is presented and extended to the formation of heterobiaryl connections. A preliminary study of the scope and limitations of this procedure was carried out in the synthesis of phenanthroids 11 from a series of phenethyl-substituted heterocycles 10, It was observed that in some cases a competitive dimerization process took place. It was also found that the coupling step could be efficiently extended to a larger number of examples if an aromatic ring were situated fused to the 1,2-diarylethane skeleton, as in 23 and 30. The synthesis of a series of 4,5-diarylthiazoles 23a-g was therefore carried out to explore the electronic requirements and the regioselectivity of the PIFA-mediated non-phenolic coupling reaction. When the same procedure was applied to aryl-heteroarylthiazoles 30, a series of phenanthroid-fused thiazoles 31 was obtained in good overall yields. To the best of our knowledge, no oxidative aryl-heteroaryl coupling reaction of this type had previously been reported. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2002.
