Article Abstract

A domino approach to bridged cycloocta[]indolone through a cascade of aza-Piancatelli rearrangement/Friedel-Crafts alkylation is developed. This transformation has been realized by reaction of an indole-tethered 2-furylcarbinol and substituted aniline in the presence of a Lewis acid to initiate aza-Piancatelli rearrangement followed by an in situ intramolecular Friedel-Crafts alkylation to access bridged tetracyclic frameworks in one pot.

A chiral Brønsted acid catalyzed highly enantio- and diastereoselective cascade cyclization has been developed to streamline the synthesis of valuable multifunctionalized enantioenriched cyclopenta[ f]pyrrolo[1,2- d][1,4]diazepinones bearing three contiguous stereocenters in high yields with excellent control of stereochemistry from a wide range of both readily available 2-furylcarbinols and (1 H-pyrrol-1-yl)anilines, which represents the first asymmetric intramolecular conjugate addition of α,β-unsaturated cycloketones with inert N-substituted pyrroles as well as the first enantioselective aza-piancatelli rearrangement/Friedel-Crafts alkylation cascade reaction.

2-Furylcarbinols undergo a smooth aza-Piancatelli rearrangement followed by Friedel-Crafts alkylation with a bifunctional substrate, (1H-pyrrol-1-yl)aniline, in the presence of 10 mol% In(OTf)3 in acetonitrile at room temperature to afford the corresponding hexahydrobenzo[b]cyclopenta[f]pyrrolo[1,2-d][1,4]diazepin-11(4aH)-one scaffolds in good yields. This method offers significant advantages such as high conversions, mild reaction conditions, short reaction times, and high selectivity. The relative stereochemistry of the product was established by nOe studies.
