A protocol in the preparation of
functionalized N-allyl-N-aryl sulfonamides
via palladium-catalyzed
intramolecular decarboxylative N-allylation reaction is presented.
The alkylated 2,5-cyclohexadienyl ketoesters reacted with arylsulfonamides
in the presence of titanium tetrachloride and pyridine, which allows
the formation of alkylated 2,5-cyclohexadienyl sulfonyl iminoesters
which then undergo a palladium-catalyzed intramolecular allylic amidation
through decarboxylative aromatization to provide functionalized N-allyl-N-aryl sulfonamides. This allylation
protocol proceeds with good regioselectivity. Moreover, we have also
shown that N-allyl-N-aryl sulfonamide
can be transformed into 4-aryl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline and nitrogen-containing
β-hydroxysulfide bioactives.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
