Ruthenium-catalyzed intramolecular arene C(sp2)-H amidation for synthesis of 3,4-dihydroquinolin-2(1 H)-ones

We report the [Ru(p-cymene)(l-proline)Cl] ([Ru1])-catalyzed cyclization of 1,4,2-dioxazol-5-ones to form dihydroquinoline-2-ones in excellent yields with excellent regioselectivity via a formal intramolecular arene C(sp2)-H amidation. The reactions of the 2- and 4-substituted aryl dioxazolones proceeds initially through spirolactamization via electrophilic amidation at the arene site, which is para or ortho to the substituent. A Hammett correlation study showed that the spirolactamization is likely to occur by electrophilic nitrenoid attack at the arene, which is characterized by a negative ρ value of -0.73.

Synthesis of Lactams via Ir-Catalyzed C-H Amidation Involving Ir-Nitrene Intermediates

x-membered lactams were synthesized via either an amidation of sp3 C-H bonds or an electrophilic substitution of arenes via Ir-nitrene intermediates. With the employment of a readily available iridium catalyst in dichloromethane or hexafluoro-2-propanol, a wide range of lactams were synthesized in good to excellent yields with high selectivity.

METHOD FOR PRODUCING LACTAM COMPOUND, AND LACTAM COMPOUND PRODUCED THEREBY

The present invention relates to a method for producing a lactam compound from dioxazolone in the presence of a catalyst having a particular ligand, and to a lactam compound produced thereby, and can produce a lactam compound with excellent selectivity and an excellent yield by using the combination of a starting material having a particular functional group and a particular catalyst having a particular ligand.

Revisiting Arene C(sp2)?H Amidation by Intramolecular Transfer of Iridium Nitrenoids: Evidence for a Spirocyclization Pathway

Two mechanistic pathways, that is, electrocyclization and electrophilic aromatic substitution, are operative in most intramolecular C?H amination reactions proceeding by metal nitrenoid catalysis. Reported here is an alternative mechanistic scaffold leading to benzofused δ-lactams selectively. Integrated experimental and computational analysis revealed that the reaction proceeds by a key spirocyclization step followed by a skeletal rearrangement. Based on this mechanistic insight, a new synthetic route to spirolactams has been developed.

Formation of 2,3-Dihydro-4(1H)-quinolones and Related Compounds via Fries-type Acid-catalysed Rearrangement of 1-Arylazetidin-2-ones

A variety of 1-arylazetidin-2-ones were treated with trifluoroacetic acid under reflux, methanesulphonic acid at 100 deg C, or conc. sulphuric acid to give the corresponding 2,3-dihydro-4(1H)-quinolones via acyl migration and N-CO fission.In the case of 1-(3-substituted phenyl)azetidin-2-ones, two positional isomeric products, 5- and 7-substituted 2,3-dihydro-4(1H)-quinolones were obtained. 4-Methyl, 4-ethoxycarbonyl, and 4-piperidin-2-yl-1-arylazetidin-2-ones and their analogues were also converted into the corresponding 2-substituted 2,3-dihydro-4(1H)-quinolones under acidic conditions.The 3-substituted 1-phenylazetidin-2-ones (36) and (37) were converted into the furoquinoline systems (38) and (40), respectively, by application of this method.
