RESUMEN
A visible-light-induced chemodivergent synthesis of tetracyclic quinazolinones and 3-iminoisoindoliones has been developed. This chemodivergent reaction afforded two kinds of different products by substrate control. A detailed investigation of the reaction mechanism revealed that this consecutive photoinduced electron transfer (ConPET) cascade cyclization involved a radical process, and the aryl radical was the crucial intermediate. This method employed 4-DPAIPN as a photocatalyst and i-Pr2NEt as a sacrificial electron donor leading to metal-free conditions.
RESUMEN
An Fe-catalyzed visible-light induced condensation of alkylbenzenes with anthranilamides has been developed. Upon irradiation, the trivalent iron complex could generate chlorine radicals, which successfully abstracted the hydrogen of benzylic C-H bonds to form benzyl radicals. And these benzyl radicals were converted into oxygenated products under air conditions, which subsequently reacted with anthranilamides for the synthesis of quinazolinones.
RESUMEN
A photocatalytic chemodivergent reaction for the selectivity formation of C-S and C-N bonds in a controlled manner was proposed. The reaction medium, either neutral or acidic, is critical to dictate the formation of 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles and 1,2,4-triazole-3-thiones from isothiocyanates and hydrazones. This is a practical protocol to achieve the chemoselectivity under mild and metal-free conditions.
RESUMEN
A convenient and efficient palladium-catalyzed approach has been developed for the synthesis of 5-amino-1,2,4-oxadiazoles from amidoximes and isocyanides. Various 5-amino-1,2,4-oxadiazoles were obtained in moderate to high yields under mild conditions. The key to the success of this strategy involves new C-N bond and C-O bond formation via palladium-catalyzed isocyanide insertion.
RESUMEN
We developed an efficient and novel protocol to synthesize 2-alkynyl oxazoles from tert-butyl isocyanide and alkynyl carboxylic acids. This method allowed the synthesis of diversely functionalized oxazoles under mild reaction conditions, coupled with operational simplicity and these functionalized oxazoles showed a certain degree of biological activity. Moreover, compounds 2b, 2h, 2k, 2n, 2p and 2t exhibited good anticancer activities in human gastric cancer cells (MGC803) and human bladder tumor cells (T24), with IC50 below 20.0 µM.
RESUMEN
Transition-metal-free synthesis of 4-pyrones via TfOH-promoted nucleophilic addition/cyclization of diynones and water has been developed. This transformation is simple, atom economical and environmentally benign, providing rapid and efficient access to substituted 4-pyrones.
