RESUMEN
The synthesis of difluoromethylene-containing heterocycles was achieved via the palladium-catalyzed 1,1-difluoroallylation of heteronucleophiles followed by intramolecular Heck reaction. The allylic substitution of 3-bromo-3,3-difluoropropene was regioselectively accomplished by heteronucleophiles without rearrangement to give the corresponding 1,1-difluoroallylated compounds whose Heck cyclization proceeded in a 5-exo manner to afford ring-difluorinated indolines and dihydrobenzofurans. Their defluorinative allylic substitution further provided 2-fluoroindoles and 2-fluorobenzofurans.
RESUMEN
The combination of Pd catalyst and diethylzinc with triethylborane promotes the amphiphilic allylation of aldimines with 2,3-bismethylenebutane-1,4-diol derivatives to serve as bis-allylic zwitterion species to form 3,4-bismethylenepiperidines via a formal [4 + 2] cycloaddition reaction. 3,4-Bismethylenepiperidine rings are applicable for the synthesis of isoquinoline derivatives via the Diels-Alder reaction followed by an oxidation reaction with DDQ.
RESUMEN
3-Difluoromethylated 2,3-dihydrobenzoheteroles, 2,3-dihydrobenzofurans, 2,3-dihydrobenzothiophenes, and indolines were readily synthesized from ortho-heterosubstituted bromobenzenes, 2-bromophenols, 2-bromobenzenethiols, and 2-bromoanilines, respectively, in two steps: (1) γ-selective allylic substitution of 3-bromo-3,3-difluoropropene with heteronucleophiles and (2) intramolecular radical cyclization of the resulting 3,3-difluoroallylic compounds.
