5,10-Dihydroindeno[1,2-]indole has served as an important starting precursor for BARAC-fluor reagent in medicinal chemistry. Herein, an unprecedented -TsOH assisted intramolecular C2-arylation of NH-indoles via C(sp)-CN/C(sp)-H coupling, offering a series of 5,10-dihydroindeno[1,2-]indoles with moderate to good yields, has been showcased under redox-neutral conditions. Furthermore, successful scalability and synthetic applications highlight the practical nature of the method.

Palladium-catalysed and base-dependent intra-molecular -substitution and cyclisation strategies involving -indolyl-substituted aryl-sulfonamides for the rapid construction of 2-aryl indole and indole-fused six-membered sultams are described. The Pd(OAc)/PhP/EtN combination delivers indolyl C2 arylated motifs C(2)-N bond cleavage followed by C-C bond formation. In sharp contrast to this, the Pd(OAc)/PhP/KCO combination induced intramolecular-Heck cross-coupling affords polycyclic sultams exclusively.

Synthesis and direct C2 functionalization of imidazolium and 1,2,4-triazolium N-imides.

J Org Chem

Center for Heterocyclic Compounds, Department of Chemistry, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida 32611-7200, United States.

Pd-catalyzed direct C2 arylation and Cu-catalyzed direct one-pot alkynylation/intramolecular cyclization of azolium N-imides are reported. Various acetylenes, aryl iodides, and 1-alkyl substituents were examined. The mild protocol allows direct C2 arylation of azolium N-imides without the use of specialized reagents together with novel one-pot regioselective preparations of imidazole-pyrazolo and pyrazolo-1,2,4-triazole ring systems.

Regio- and stereoselective alkynylation of various N-heterocycles 1a-l using potassium and cesium salts in DMSO is described. Terminal alkynes 2a-k and internal alkynes 4a-f provided the kinetically stable Z-enamines 3a-l and 5a-i in good to excellent yields using KOH at 120 °C. Addition of heterocyclic amines to 1,3- and 1,4-diethynylbenzene 6a-b provided the mixture of E/Z isomers with KOH; however, with Cs(2)CO(3) selectively Z-isomers 7ab-db were obtained by the hydroamination at one triple bond.
