Blue light-emitting diode-mediated environmentally sustainable three component reactions among pyridine/ isoquinoline 1/2, aryl diazoesters 3, and acrylic ester/3-alkenyl oxindoles 5/6 provide various dihydroindolizines 7 to 9 in excellent yield. The principle of the strategy is photolytic generation of nitrogen ylides from N-heteroarenes and aryl diazoesters and their subsequent [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction with dipolarophiles. Detailed mechanistic analysis of the transformation through control experiments establishes this strategy as the foundation for the photolytic multicomponent reaction.
The pyrrole and indole derivatives are functionalized via a green initiative with dimethylmalonate derived phenyl iodonium ylide 4a in presence of blue LED via C-H functionalization of the respective heterocycles...
Herein, we have reported a blue LED mediated manganese pentacarbonyl bromide catalysed incorporation of carbene moieties from aryl diazoesters onto 1H-pyrroles via their selective C2À H activation. A manganese metal-carbene has been identified as the active catalyst to facilitate the reaction. Eighteen mono substituted pyrrole derivatives were isolated in good to excellent yields (67!82%) and the disubstituted products were also formed in minor quantities (5 to 8%). HPLC based kinetics study enabled optimization of the reaction. Control experiments, FT-IR, NMR and GC-MS based characterization elucidated the putative reaction mechanism.
A mild strategy for consecutive diazenylation and amination of indole moieties has been demonstrated. The functionalization occurs at C3 and C2 carbon atoms, respectively, at the indole scaffold in the presence of catalytic iodine and air at 40 °C in the 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) solvent. It is noteworthy that the aromatic amines are generated in situ by the reaction of aryl hydrazine with iodine. In general, bright red products are obtained in moderate to good yield. Control reactions are conducted to establish the reaction mechanism.
