Lakshman MK, Sebastian D, Pradhan P, Neary MC, Piette AM, Trzebiatowski SP, Henriques AEK, Willoughby PH. Nitrene C-H Bond Insertion Approach to Carbazolones and Indolones, and a Reactivity Departure for 7-Membered Analogues. Chemistry 2023; 29:e202302995. [PMID: 37751465 DOI: 10.1002/chem.202302995] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2023] [Revised: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/26/2023] [Indexed: 09/28/2023]
Abstract
A modular platform for facile access to 1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-4H-carbazol-4-ones (H4 -carbazolones) and 3,4-dihydrocyclopenta[b]indol-1(2H)-ones (H2 -indolones) is described. The requisite 6- and 5-membered 2-arylcycloalkane-1,3-dione precursors were readily obtained through a Cu-catalyzed arylation of 1,3-cyclohexanediones or by a ring expansion of aryl succinoin derivatives. Enolization of one carbonyl group in the diones, conversion to a leaving group, and subsequent azidation gave 2-aryl-3-azidocycloalk-2-en-1-ones. This two-step, one-pot azidation is highly regioselective with unsymmetrically substituted 2-arylcyclohexane-1,3-diones. The regioselectivity, which is important for access to single isomers of 3,3-disubstituted carbazolones, was analyzed mechanistically and computationally. Finally, a Rh-catalyzed nitrene/nitrenoid insertion into the ortho C-H bond of the aryl moiety gave the H4 -carbazolones and H2 -indolones. One carbazolone was elaborated to an intermediate reported in the total synthesis of N-decarbomethoxychanofruticosinate, (-)-aspidospermidine, (+)-kopsihainanine A. With 2-phenylcycloheptane-1,3-dione, prepared from cyclohexanone and benzaldehyde, the azidation reaction was readily accomplished. However, the Rh-catalyzed reaction unexpectedly led to a labile but characterizable azirine rather than the indole derivative. Computations were performed to understand the differences in reactivities of the 5- and 6-membered 2-aryl-3-azidocycloalk-2-en-1-ones in comparison to the 7-membered analogue, and to support the structural assignment of the azirine.

Abstract
AbstractA Ru(II)-catalyzed synthesis of spirobi[indene]dione from phenyl indandione and alkyne is reported. This metal-catalyzed cyclization reaction proceeds through hydroxy group directed C(sp2)–H bond activation, keto–enol tautomerization and alkyne annulation pathways.

Abstract
A straightforward and feasible palladium-catalyzed direct α-arylation of indane-1,3-dione to 2-substituted aryl/heteroaryl indene-1,3-diones has been disclosed for the first time. Optimization of reaction conditions identified tBu-XPhos as a preferred ligand for the bis(acetonitrile)dichloropalladium(II) catalyst. A broad spectrum of aryl iodides and aryl triflates containing electron-donating, electron-withdrawing, and sterically hindered substituents gave an excellent yield for the quick access α-arylated 1,3-diones library.
