چکیده

BACKGROUND Small polyfunctionalized heterocyclic compounds play important roles in the drug discovery process and in the isolation and structural identification of biological macromolecules. It is expected that ready access to diverse sets of heterocycles can not only help improving the known biological and pharmacokinetic properties of drugs, but also assist the discovery of molecules that exhibit biological effects beyond those associated with previously known macromolecules. By virtue of their inherent convergence, high productivity, their exploratory and complexity-generating power, multicomponent reactions (MCRs) are undoubtedly well suited for creating molecular diversity. The combination of MCRs with an efficient post-functionalization reaction has proven to be an efficient strategy to increase the skeleton diversity. RESULTS The Ugi reaction of an o-iodobenzaldehyde (2), an aniline (3), an isocyanide (4), and a carboxylic acid (5) afforded alpha-acetamido-alpha-phenylacetamide (6) in good to excellent yields. The palladium-catalyzed intramolecular C-H functionalization of these adducts under ligandless conditions provided the functionalized dihydrophenanthridines (1). CONCLUSION Highly functionalized dihydrophenanthridines are synthesized in only two steps from readily accessible starting materials in good to excellent overall yields.

Synthesis of phenanthridines via palladium-catalyzed picolinamide-directed sequential C–H functionalization

We report a new synthesis of phenanthridines based on palladium-catalyzed picolinamide-directed sequential C-H functionalization reactions starting from readily available benzylamine and aryl iodide precursors. Under the catalysis of Pd(OAc)2, the ortho-C-H bond of benzylpicolinamides is first arylated with an aryl iodide. The resulting biaryl compound is then subjected to palladium-catalyzed p...

One-pot synthesis of spiropyrroloquinoline-isoindolinone and their aza-analogs via the Ugi-4CR/metal-free intramolecular bis-annulation process.

This presentation discloses a one-pot synthesis of a series of spiropyrroloquinoline isoindolinone and spiropyrroloquinoline aza-isoindolinone scaffolds. The reaction proceeds by the combination of a Ugi four-component reaction (4CR) and two intramolecular cyclizations under metal-free conditions. The proof of the structures relies on analytical investigation and X-ray crystallography.

A Novel Strategy of Ugi-4CR/Huisgen 1,3-Dipolar Synthesis of 1H-1,2,3-Triazole-Modified Peptidoimetics

In this protocol, we report a novel approach for the synthesis of a new class of heterocyclic 1H-1,2,3-triazole-modified peptidomimetic compounds. The process consists of an Ugi four-component condensation reaction of amines, an isocyanide, an aldehyde and acids followed by a Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction with an azide group in the presence of a catalytic amount of CuSO4</...

Synthesis of boron-containing primary amines.

In this study, boron-containing primary amines were synthesized for use as building blocks in the study of peptoids. In the first step, Gabriel synthesis conditions were modified to enable the construction of seven different aminomethylphenyl boronate esters in good to excellent yields. These compounds were further utilized to build peptoid analogs via an Ugi four-component reaction (Ugi-4CR) u...

Palladium-catalyzed synthesis of cyclopentane-fused benzocyclobutenes via tandem directed carbopalladation/C-H bond functionalization.

A new Pd-catalyzed reaction for the stereoselective synthesis of cyclopentane-fused benzocyclobutenes is described. These transformations likely proceed via carbamate-directed carbopalladation followed by intramolecular C-H activation of an alkylpalladium intermediate. The mechanistic relationship between these transformations and Pd-catalyzed reactions of gamma-(n-Boc-amino)alkenes with aryl b...
