Rhodium(II)‐Catalyzed [4+2] Annulation of Ester‐Tethered 1‐Sulfonyl‐1,2,3‐Triazoles and Hexahydro‐1,3,5‐Triazines

Reaction of 1,3,5-Triazinanes with Phosphoryl Diazomethanes: Access to 5-Phosphoryl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidines

Conversion of 1,3,5-triazinanes into 5-phosporyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidines is achieved efficiently through the microwave-assisted reaction with phosphoryl diazomethanes. Both trialkyl and triaryl 1,3,5-triazinanes were converted by diazomethyldiarylphosphine oxides, dialkyl diazomethylphosphonates, and alkyl diazomethyl(aryl)phosphinates and functionalized simultaneously in good to excellent yields. The reaction is a sequence of 1,3,5-triazinane fragmentation, tandem nucleophilic addition of the generated formaldimines and phosphoryl diazomethanes, and final N,N-acetalization.

Catalyst-Free Synthesis of Polycyclic Spiroindolines by Cascade Reaction of 3-(2-Isocyanoethyl)indoles with 1-Sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles

A catalyst-free cascade reaction of 3-(2-isocyanoethyl)indoles and 1-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles was realized. This dearomative spirocyclization provided an efficient protocol to synthesize a series of polycyclic indolines bearing spiro-α-carboline in moderate to high yields in one step under thermal reaction conditions.

Access to tetrahydrocarbazoles and pyrrolo[3,4-b]carbazoles through sequential reactions of triazoles and indoles

Tetrahydrocarbazoles and pyrrolo[3,4-b]carbazoles could be synthesized conveniently through sequential reactions of ester-tethered 1-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles and indoles. The reaction conditions were mild and the procedures were quite simple. Moreover, the key intermediate α,β-unsaturated imine acted as a [2C] synthon in the [4 + 2] cycloaddition reaction, and the imino group could be used as a nucleophile to construct the fourth ring.

Two reaction modes of 1-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles and pyridinium 1,4-zwitterionic thiolates: catalyst-free synthesis of pyrido[1,2-a]pyrazine derivatives and 1,4-thiazine derivatives

Efficient catalyst-free synthesis of pyrido[1,2-a]pyrazine and 1,4-thiazine derivatives from triazole and pyridinium 1,4-zwitterionic thiolate was realized.
