Trifluoroethanol as a Unique Additive for the Chemoselective Electrooxidation of Enamines to Access Unsymmetrically Substituted NH-Pyrroles

An electrochemical method for the synthesis of unsymmetrically substituted NH-pyrroles is described. The synthetic strategy comprises a challenging heterocoupling between two structurally diverse enamines via sequential chemoselective oxidation, addition,

Tetrasubstituted 1,3-Enynes by Gold-Catalyzed Direct C(sp2)-H Alkynylation of Acceptor-Substituted Enamines

A gold-catalyzed synthesis of tetrasubstituted 1,3-enynes from hypervalent iodine(III) reagents and activated alkenes is reported. This reaction involves an in situ formed alkynyl Au(III) species and a subsequent direct C(sp2)-H functionalization of alkenes, offering 26 enynes in 62-92% yield with excellent functional group tolerance.

Regioselective Synthesis of N2-Aryl 1,2,3-Triazoles via Electro-oxidative Coupling of Enamines and Aryldiazonium Salts

An efficient synthetic route for the construction of N2-aryl 1,2,3-triazoles is reported via sequential C-N bond formation and electro-oxidative N-N coupling under metal-free conditions. Readily accessible 2-aminoacrylates and aryldiazonium salts were used as starting materials, and the developed protocol displays excellent functional group tolerance, allowing an extensive range of substrate scope up to 91% isolated yield. Various mechanistic studies, along with the isolation of an intermediate adduct, refer to successive ionic and radical reaction sequences.

Synthesis of Thiazoles and Isothiazoles via Three-Component Reaction of Enaminoesters, Sulfur, and Bromodifluoroacetamides/Esters

A three-component strategy for the synthesis of thiazoles and isothiazoles has been developed by employing enaminoesters, fluorodibromoiamides/ester, and sulfur. The thiazoles and isothiazoles were formed via two C-F bond cleavages along with the formation of new C-S, C-N, and N-S bonds. The strategy provides high selectivity for the synthesis of thiazoles/isothiazoles, which have vital applications in drug discovery and development.

Facile Synthesis of Onychines

The FeCl 3 -mediated condensation of an α-phenylenamino ester and an enone proceeds efficiently to afford a 2-phenylnicotinate. The subsequent intramolecular Friedel-Crafts reaction yielded an onychine framework. Modifications at the 2-, 3-, and 8-positions of the onychine framework were easily achieved by altering the enamino esters and enones, which facilitated the discovery of potentially bioactive compounds.

Cu-Catalyzed Denitrogenative Transannulation of 3-Aminoindazoles to Assemble 1-Aminoisoquinolines and 3-Aminobenzothiophenes

We disclose a novel Cu-catalyzed denitrogenative transannulation of 3-aminoindazoles to afford diverse functionalized 3-aminobenzothiophenes and 1-aminoisoquinolines, in which denitrogenative transannulation of 3-aminoindazoles is reported for the first t

Divergent Synthesis of Multisubstituted Unsymmetric Pyrroles and Pyrrolin-4-ones from Enamino Esters via Copper-Catalyzed Aerobic Dimerization

A facile synthetic method to access multisubstituted unsymmetric pyrrole and pyrrolin-4-one derivatives is disclosed. In the presence of Cu(OAc)2 and KOAc, substituted pyrrole derivatives are produced in good yields (up to 93 %) through oxidative cyclization of enamino esters. Meanwhile, using CuCl2 and TFA (trifluoroacetic acid), pyrrolin-4-one derivatives are obtained in excellent yields (up to 94 %) through 1,2-aryl migration. A wide range of functional groups have been tolerated, and a reliable method for the synthesis of valuable multisubstituted pyrroles and pyrrolin-4-ones has been developed.

Copper-Catalyzed Tandem Reaction of Enamino Esters with ortho-Halogenated Aromatic Carbonyls: One-Pot Approach to Functionalized Quinolines

An efficient and practical approach for the synthesis of functionalized quinolines has been developed by using the copper-catalyzed tandem C–C bond formation and C–N coupling reaction of enamino esters and ortho-halogenated aromatic carbonyl compounds. Various functional groups were tolerated under the reaction conditions, and a series of quinolines were easily obtained in moderate to good yields. A gram-scale reaction was also performed to demonstrate a further application of this synthetic method.

Lewis Acid-Mediated [3+3] Annulation for the Construction of Substituted Pyrimidine and Pyridine Derivatives

A direct and single-step procedure towards substituted pyrimidine and pyridine derivatives via Lewis acid-promoted [3+3] annulation between 3-ethoxycyclobutanones and enamines or amidines is presented. Diverse substituted pyrimidine and pyridine derivatives were obtained in good to high yields with a wide substrate scope. (Figure presented.).

Chiral Lewis Base-Catalyzed, Enantioselective Reduction of Unprotected β-Enamino Esters with Trichlorosilane

Catalytic asymmetric reduction of N-unsubstituted β-enamino esters represents a major challenge for asymmetric catalysis. In this paper, the first organocatalytic system that could be used for the asymmetric hydrosilylation of N-unsubstituted β-enamino esters has been developed. Using N-tert-butylsulfinyl-L-proline-derived amides and L-pipecolinic acid-derived formamides as catalyst, a broad range of β-aryl- and β-alkyl-substituted free β-amino esters could be prepared with high yields and enantioselectivities. The practicality was illustrated by the gram-scale asymmetric synthesis of ethyl (R)-3-amino-3-phenylpropanoate and isopropyl (S)-3-amino-4-(2,3,5-trifluorophenyl)butanoate. The resulting product can be smoothly transformed to the FDA approved medicines dapoxetine and sitagliptin in a short synthetic route.
