The nickel-catalyzed reductive cleavage of esters in the absence of an external reductant, which involves the cleavage of an inert acyl C-O bond in O-Alkyl esters is reported. Various groups, such as N-containing heterocycles, esters, amides, and even arene rings can function as a directing group.

(Chemical Equation Presented) Carbanion-mediated general regioselective routes to acridones 4 (Table 2) and dibenzo[b,f]azepinones 20 (Table 4) are described. Buchwald-Hartwig C-N cross coupling of o-halo benzamides 1 with anilines 2 or 16, followed by simple N-methylation, dependably provides N-methyl diarylamines 3 (Table 1) and 18 (Table 3). Upon treatment with LDA, 3 and 18 are converted into acridones 4 and dibenzo[b,f]azepinones 20, respectively, in good to excellent yields with regioselectivity which depends upon the presence or absence of directed metalation groups (DMGs). Brief investigations as follows are described: the synthesis of desmethyl acridone 15 (Scheme 4), an attempt to effect a double-directed remote metalation sequence which leads only to a monocyclization product 13 (Scheme 3), and an analogous but nonregioselective route to a xanthone 22 and dibenzo[b,f]oxepinone 24 (Scheme 5). DFT calculations reveal low energy conformations for compounds 18b and 23 which account for product formation and indicate that the cyclization reactions are under kinetic control.

New general methodology of value in aromatic chemistry based on silicon protection of preferred ortho metalation sites in benzamides and o-methyl groups in o-toluamides (1, 2, Scheme I) is described.According to these methodologies, routes (Scheme II and V) to 1,2,5-, 1,2,4,5-, and 1,2,3-substituted aromatics with a variety of functionalities and oxidation states have been developed (Tables I and II).These tactics are used for the synthesis of difficult to access halo (10a-b, Scheme III) and methyl (21,25, Scheme VI) heterocycles.Ipso bromodesilylation reactions with bromine lead regiospecifically to o-bromobenzamides (12a,c, 14, Scheme IV).Walk-around-the-ring metalation processes provide highly substituted aromatics 27, 28, 29, and 30 (Scheme VII); the X-ray structure of the hexasubstituted derivative 30 shows a significant puckering of the aromatic ring.Cesium fluoride induced carbodesilylation of o-silylbenzamides with benzaldehyde affords, after TsOH cyclization, phthalides (31a-c, Scheme VIII) and constitutes a neutral alternative to the directed ortho metalation approach. α- and α,α-silylated o-toluamides are used in fluoride-mediated carbodesilylation (34a,d, Scheme IX) and desilylative Peterson olefination (35, Scheme X) procedures, respectively.The utility of α-silylated o-toluamide for the synthesis of a tetralin (38, Scheme XI) via an o-quinodimethane species is given.
SILICON IN BENZAMIDE DIRECTED ORTHO METALATION REACTIONS. CARBO- AND BROMO-DESILYLATIONS AND SYNTHESIS OF NATURALLY-OCCURING ANTHRAQUINONES

Silylated benzamides 2, avaible by directed ortho metalation, undergo fluorideinduced carbodesilylation and ipso bromodesilylation to give usefully-substituted aromatics 3 and 4; these reactions are utilized in a short and efficient synthesis of erythrola
