Development of a Mild and Versatile Directed Cycloaddition Approach to Pyridines

چکیده
The aza-Diels-Alder cycloaddition of 1,2,4-triazines with alkynes offers a rapid and convenient method for the synthesis of highly substituted pyridines, but often requires harsh conditions and long reaction times. The present study offers a solution to these limitations by use of a temporary tether established by a Lewis acid-base complexation of in situ generated alkynylboranes and triazines bearing a Lewis basic donor. The cycloaddition reactions take place within 20 min at 40 °C and provide direct access to a broad range of pyridines with complete and predictable regiocontrol. The carbonboron bond can be further functionalised by cross-coupling allowing further functionality to be introduced after cycloaddition.

A simple and highly efficient iron catalyst for a [2+2+2] cycloaddition to form pyridines.
Transition-metal-catalyzed [2+2+2] cycloaddition reactions that use two alkynes and a nitrile is the most straightforward and powerful strategy for the construction of multisubstituted pyridines with high atom efficiency. The iron-catalyzed [2+2+2] cycloaddition to form pyridines remains a great challenge in this field, although significant efforts have been made in various catalytic systems (e...

The pyridine heterocycle continues to play a vital role in the development of human medicines. More than 100 currently marketed drugs contain this privileged unit, which remains highly sought after synthetically. We report an efficient means to access di- and trisubstituted pyridines in an efficient and highly controlled manner using transient 3,4-pyridyne intermediates. Previous efforts to emp...
متن کاملRhodium(III)-Catalyzed Dearomatizing (3 + 2) Annulation of 2-Alkenylphenols and Alkynes
Appropriately substituted 2-alkenylphenols undergo a mild formal [3C+2C] cycloaddition with alkynes when treated with a Rh(III) catalyst and an oxidant. The reaction, which involves the cleavage of the terminal C-H bond of the alkenyl moiety and the dearomatization of the phenol ring, provides a versatile and efficient approach to highly appealing spirocyclic skeletons and occurs with high sele...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Pyridinium Ylide--Alkyne Cycloaddition as a Fluorogenic Coupling Reaction.
The cycloaddition of pyridinium ylides with alkynes was investigated under mild conditions. A series of 13 pyridinium salts was prepared by alkylation of 4-substituted pyridines. Their reactivity with propiolic ester or amide in various reaction conditions (different temperatures, solvents, added bases) was studied, and 11 indolizines, with three points of structural variation, were, thus, isol...
