Synthesis of Indazoles
Base-catalyzed tandem carbon–carbon followed by nitrogen–nitrogen bond formations quantitatively converted N-alkyl-2-nitro-N-(2-oxo-2-aryl-ethyl)-benzenesulfonamides to 2H-indazoles 1-oxides under mild conditions. Triphenylphosphine or mesyl chloride/triethylamine-mediated deoxygenation afforded 2H-indazoles.
A highly efficient novel traceless solid-phase synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrazino[1,2-b]indazoles and their 6-oxides was developed by using commercially available building blocks, diamines, 2-nitrobenzenesulfonyl chlorides, and bromoketones/bromoacetates. Mild reaction conditions, diversely substituted building blocks and high purity of crude products enabled effective combinatorial syntheses of libraries.
Polymer-supported α-acylamino ketones were transformed to seven types of structurally unrelated heterocyclic compounds. Syntheses involved variety of chemical routes and comprised diverse chemistries (C-C, C=C, C-N, C=N, C-O bond formations). Different sizes of heterocycles (4-, 5-, 6-, and 7-membered rings) were prepared, including dihydro-pyrrol-2-ones, pyrazin-2-ones, dihydro-triazepin-6-ones, morpholin-3-ones, imidazoles, β-lactams, and isoquinolin-1-ones. Further elaboration to fused ring systems was also documented.
Polymer-supported α-acylamino ketones were prepared from resin-bound amines, bromoketones, and carboxylic acids. Selective monoalkylation of amines by bromoketones was carried out via 4-nitrobenzenesulfonamides. There was a striking difference in the reaction outcome between 2-Nos and 4-Nos derivatives. α-Acylamino ketones were converted to imidazoles. The cyclization was performed on resin, allowing further polymer-supported elaboration of imidazoles including synthesis of bis-heterocyclic compounds. A small combinatorial array of imidazoles was synthesized. Target compounds were prepared under mild conditions using commercially available building blocks for the introduction of three points of diversity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
