RESUMO
A diverse approach toward the catalytic regioselective nucleophilic addition of nitrogen heterocycles to Lewis acid activated pentafulvenes has been established. The developed protocol introduces pentafulvenes as nonsymmetrical alkenes for the hydroheteroarylation reaction, providing alkylidenecyclopentenylation at the C-3 position of indoles and the C-2 position of pyrrole.
RESUMO
Herein we describe our efforts on the Lewis acid catalyzed stereoselective ring-opening of pentafulvene derived diazabicyclic olefins using various ortho-functionalized aryl iodides such as 2-iodoanilines, 2-iodophenols and 2-iodobenzene thiols to access trans-1,2 disubstituted alkylidenecyclopentenes. The scope of the reaction was also explored with a range of easily available aromatic and aliphatic alcohols. Furthermore, the palladium catalyzed intramolecular Heck cyclization of trans-1,2 disubstituted alkylidenecyclopentenes would provide an easy approach for the synthesis of highly functionalized spiropentacyclic frameworks consisting of a cyclopentene fused to an indoline/benzothiophene and pyrazolidine.
RESUMO
A palladium/Lewis acid mediated stepwise and one-pot transformation of pentafulvene derived diazabicyclic olefins is described. The reaction offers a facile strategy for the synthesis of novel spiropentacyclic motifs with indoline and pyrazolidine fused to the cyclopentene core.
