Transition-metal-free [3 + 3] annulation of indol-2-ylmethyl carbanions to nitroarenes. A novel synthesis of indolo[3,2-b]quinolines (quindolines)
نویسندگان
چکیده
Indol-2-ylmethyl carbanions stabilized by alkoxycarbonyl, cyano or benzenesulfonyl groups react with nitroarenes to form σH-adducts, which in the presence of base (triethylamine or DBU) and trimethylchlorosilane transform into indolo[3,2-b]quinoline derivatives in moderate to good yields.

متن کاملSynthesis of Poly-Substituted Quinolines via Friedländer Hetero-Annulation Reaction Using Silica-Supported P2O5 under Solvent-Free Conditions
A highly efficient, simple and green solvent-free protocol for the preparation of poly-substituted quinolines via Friedländer hetero-annulation reaction between 2-aminoaryl ketones and carbonyl compounds in the presence of silica-supported P2O5 (P2O5 / SiO2) is described. In this method, the title compounds are obtained in high to exc...
متن کاملMetal-free aerobic one-pot synthesis of substituted/annulated quinolines from alcohols via indirect Friedländer annulation.
Metal-free, operationally simple, and highly efficient one-pot aerobic process for the synthesis of functionalized/annulated quinolines is devised from easily available 2-aminobenzyl alcohol/2-aminobenzophenones and alkyl/aryl alcohols for the first time. The process involves two sequential reactions, namely in situ aerial oxidation of alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes/ketones followed by...
متن کاملCuI-catalyzed photochemical or thermal reactions of 3-(2-azidobenzylidene)lactams. Application to the synthesis of fused indoles.
Photochemical or thermal reactions of 3-(2-azidobenzylidene)-lactams afforded fused indoles such as indolo[3,2-c]quinolin-6-ones, pyrido[4,3-b]indol-1-ones and other similar compounds in moderate to high yields via cyclization-ring expansion reactions. The photolytic process was much more facile than the thermal process and could be further improved by addition of CuI.
متن کاملFrom biomass to medicines. A simple synthesis of indolo[3,2-c]quinolines, antimalarial alkaloid isocryptolepine, and its derivatives.
Indolo[3,2-c]quinolines are pharmacologically attractive class of heterocyclic compounds. The method of their synthesis, based on transformation of furfural, which is a large-scale product of treatment of biomass including agricultural and forestry wastes, has been developed. This method was utilized for the total synthesis of antimalarial alkaloid isocryptolepine and its derivatives.
