چکیده
In recent years, it has become an urgent task to design new types of indole-based platform molecules for Nazarov-type cyclizations and develop organocatalytic synthesizing indole derivatives. To fulfill this task, in work, by changing the alkynyl terminal substituent from t-Bu aryl group, reactivity 3-alkynyl-2-indolylmethanols is modulated serve as competent substrates Brønsted acid-catalyzed cyclization. Based on reactivity, first cyclization aryl-substituted with 2-naphthols accomplished, leading efficient construction a class axially chiral 3, 4-dihydrocyclopenta[b]indole scaffolds. This preliminary investigation asymmetric provides optional strategy atroposelective cyclopenta[b]indole addition, preparation optical purity established through resolution, which could complementary method catalytic approaches.

متن کاملOrganocatalytic atroposelective synthesis of axially chiral styrenes
Axially chiral compounds are widespread in biologically active compounds and are useful chiral ligands or organocatalysts in asymmetric catalysis. It is well-known that styrenes are one of the most abundant and principal feedstocks and thus represent excellent prospective building blocks for chemical synthesis. Driven by the development of atroposelective synthesis of axially chiral styrene der...

The first catalytic method for the cyclization of vinyl-cyclopropyl ketones (formal homo-Nazarov reaction) is reported. Starting from activated cyclopropanes, heterocyclic, and carbocyclic compounds were obtained under mild conditions using Brønsted acid catalysts. Preliminary investigation of the reaction mechanism indicated a stepwise process.
متن کاملConquering the Challenges of the Nazarov Cyclization
One of the most powerful synthetic transformations with the ability to stereospecifically create new carbon-carbon bonds by simple orbital reorganization are electrocyclic reactions. One of the most recognized electrocyclic reactions is known as Nazarov cyclization. This reaction involves the conversion of divinyl ketones to cyclopentenones by activation with a Brønsted or Lewis acid. It was or...
