We report a Pd(II)-catalyzed bidentate directing group 8-aminoquinoline-aided, site-selective β-C-H functionalization protocol for assembling modified azobenzene carboxamides. Considering the importance of azobenzenes in chemical sciences, this paper reports a new...
Systematic investigations of a Pd(II)-catalyzed, 8aminoquinoline directing group (DG)-aided sp 2 δ-CÀ H amidation (CÀ N bond formation) of different biaryl carboxamides are reported. Various biaryl carboxamides with suitably positioned sp 2 δ-CÀ H bond with respect to the DG were assembled via β-CÀ H arylation and then they were subjected to Pd(II)-catalyzed sp 2 δ-CÀ H intramolecular amidation/annulation reactions. While the intramolecular amidation of the sp 2 δ-CÀ H bond of some carboxamides was not fruitful, several biaryl carboxamides underwent intramolecular amidation of their sp 2 δ-CÀ H bonds to afford various tricyclic quinolone motifs such as, phenanthridin-6(5H)-ones and thieno-/furo-/pyrrolo-[2,3-c]quinolin-4(5H)-ones. The assembly of the required biaryl carboxamides possessing the sp 2 δ-CÀ H bond via the β-CÀ H arylation and the successive intramolecular amidation (CÀ N bond formation) of the resulting biaryl carboxamides were also performed in one-pot reaction conditions to afford tricyclic quinolones. .
