RESUMEN
Pyrazines are reactive 4π partners in intermolecular Diels-Alder cycloaddition with exceptionally activated dienophiles or in an intermolecular version at elevated temperatures. Herein, it is shown that an intramolecular cascade could occur even at room temperature, delivering a collection of 6- or 7-aza-indazoles. An interesting substituent effect of the cycloaddition precursor on the product distribution was uncovered, and in situ NMR studies were conducted to gain insights into this unexpected selectivity.
RESUMEN
We report herein an efficient synthesis of furopyran derivatives through a gold(I)-catalyzed domino reaction. The cascade reaction starts with two regioselective cyclizations, a 5-endo-dig and a 8-endo-dig, followed with a Grob-type fragmentation and a hetero Diels-Alder. The obtained furopyran derivatives contain fused and spiro-heterocycles. During this one-pot process, four bonds and four controlled stereogenic centers including a quaternary center are formed.
