Iodine-Mediated Oxidative Rearrangement of α,β-Unsaturated Diaryl Ketones: A Facile Access to 1,2-Diaryl Diketones

Abstract: A metal-free oxidative rearrangement was explored for the synthesis of 1,2-diaryl diketones by utilizing α,β-unsaturated diaryl ketones and I 2 /TBHP in good to high yields. The reaction proceeds via oxidative aryl migration, followed by C–C bond cleavage. A simple and high-yielding protocol was developed for the synthesis of a wide range of 1,2-diaryl diketones, which are the backbone for a variety of medicinally important molecules.

“…The reaction did not proceed in toluene or acetonitrile (Entries 1 and 2), but dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was effective for the aromatization and nitrophenol 5a was obtained in 26% yield (Entry 3). [20][21][22] This reaction proceeded efficiently to afford 5a in 61% yield even when the amount of iodine was decreased to 10 mol%. However further decreasing the iodine amount to 5 mol% was not effective for the conversion (Entries 4 and 5).…”

“…The aromatization of 4a using iodine was then attempted ( Table 2). The reaction did not proceed in toluene or acetonitrile ( Table 2, entries 1 and 2), but dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was effective for the aromatization, and nitrophenol 5a was obtained in 26% yield ( Table 2, entry 3) [21][22][23]. This reaction proceeded efficiently to afford 5a in 61% yield even when the amount of iodine was decreased to 10 mol %.…”
