External Oxidant-Dependent Reactivity Switch in Copper-Mediated Intramolecular Carboamination of Alkynes: Access to a Different Class of Fluorescent Ionic Nitrogen-Doped Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons
Abstract:An
interesting case of external oxidant-controlled reactivity switch
leading to a divergent set of ionic nitrogen-doped polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons (N-doped PAHs), is presented here, which is quite unrecognized
in copper-mediated reactions. In the current scenario, from the same
pyridino-alkyne substrates, the use of the external oxidant PhI(OAc)2, in combination with Cu(OTf)2, gave N-doped spiro-PAHs
via a dearomative 1,2-carboamination process; whereas, without the
use of oxidant, an alkyne/azadiene [… Show more
“…It was later found that the outcome of the reaction depends on the oxidant; in particular, the use of a hypervalent iodine reagent led to spirocyclized products. 516 …”

“…Interestingly, the use of oxidant PhI(OAc) 2 as an additive offered a completely different product 111 ( Scheme 63 ). 76 The reaction offered access to variously substituted PAHs. Interestingly, aliphatic alkynes did not produce the desired 111, but 110 was obtained in good yield.…”

“…In our continuing research on realizing 1,2-aminofunctionalization reactions of pyridino-alkynes, a diverse synthetic potential of these cores was discovered based on their reactivity switch in presence of different metal catalysts. While working on the optimization of our initial project regarding Cu(OTf) 2mediated 1,2-carboamination reaction of 2-phenyl-6-(2-alkynylphenyl)pyridine skeletons (41) for the synthesis of PAHs 42 (Scheme 13), [39] formation of pyrido-isoquinoline salts 64 was encountered during the screening of silver catalysts. An AgOTf-mediated hydroamination reaction of 63 has successfully led to access 64 (Scheme 22).…”

“…With an aim to optimize such result, we have established a reaction condition where the use of 1.5 equivalent of external oxidant PhI(OAc) 2 (PIDA) in combination with 1 equivalent of Cu(OTf) 2 successfully afforded 46 via a dearomative 1,2‐carboamination process from the pyridino‐alkyne substrates 45 (Scheme 16).

Transition metal-catalyzed 1,2-difunctionalization reactions of alkynes have emerged as a powerful tool to forge carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds for the rapid synthesis of polyfunctionalized molecular scaffolds. In this regard, our group has persistently been developing transition metal-mediated 1,2-aminofunctionalization reactions of alkynes through a rationally designed pyridino-alkyne core by utilizing the carbophilic activation strategy. In this account, we present an array of such 1,2-aminofunctionalization reactions which have been successfully executed on this core to afford important polycyclic frameworks such as functionalized quinalizinones, pyridinium oxazole dyads (PODs), N-doped polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), N-doped spiro-PAHs. Additionally, the synthesis of phosphine ligated gold complexes bearing pyrido-isoquinoline scaffold from the pyridino-alkynes will be discussed briefly.
