Rhodium(III)-Catalyzed Indazole Synthesis by C–H Bond Functionalization and Cyclative Capture
نویسندگان
چکیده
An efficient, one-step, and highly functional group-compatible synthesis of substituted N-aryl-2H-indazoles is reported via the rhodium(III)-catalyzed C-H bond addition of azobenzenes to aldehydes. The regioselective coupling of unsymmetrical azobenzenes was further demonstrated and led to the development of a new removable aryl group that allows for the preparation of indazoles without N-substitution. The 2-aryl-2H-indazole products also represent a new class of readily prepared fluorophores for which initial spectroscopic characterization has been performed.

A Highly Selective Amidation of Azoxybenzenes with Sulfonamides via Rhodium(III)-Catalyzed C–H Activation
A new amidation of azoxybenzenes with sulfonamides catalyzed by a rhodium(III) salt has been developed. This sulfonamidation proceeds efficiently under mild reaction conditions to generate new C– N bonds through C–H bond activation and functionalization, affording the corresponding 2-sulfonamidoazoxybenzenes in good yields with high regioselectivity.

We herein report the Rh(iii)-catalyzed C-H bond activation and addition of benzimidates to aldehydes to afford biologically important phthalides in a single step. The imidate is a novel and unexplored directing group that not only enables C-H bond activation and addition to aldehydes, but also serves to capture the reversibly formed alcohol intermediate. The reaction shows broad scope with a hi...
