Oxidative organocatalytic chemoselective N-acylation of heterocycles with aromatic and conjugated aldehydes

Abstract: Selective acylation of indoles is cumbersome often involving the need for sensitive and reactive acyl chloride derivatives or coupling reagents. Here we report a mild, functional group tolerant and highly chemoselective oxidative carbene catalyzed N-acylation of indoles with aldehydes. The acylation has a broad substrate scope and is compatible with substituents on both the aldehyde and the indole reaction partner. Furthermore, aza-heterocycles such as pyrrole and indazole can also be used as nucleophiles in t… Show more

“…In this reaction, 6amino-1H-indazole (45 a) was treated with an aldehyde (45 b) in presence of carbene X1, Kharasch oxidant X2 and base DBU in DCM at room temperature to prepare desired N-1 acylated indazole (45 c) with 69% of yield (Scheme 45). [109] Vannucci and his group established an electrochemical synthetic procedure for selective N-1 acylation of 1H-indazole (46 a). The in situ anionic indazole was prepared first with the help of anion pool approach and then it was treated with acid anhydride which resulted in N-1 acylated indazole (46 b) (Scheme 46).…”

“…Formation of this intermediate is usually carried out via the reaction of NHCs with α,β-unsaturated enol esters or ethers [ 84 , 85 , 86 ], ynals [ 87 , 88 , 89 , 90 ], 2-bromoenals [ 91 , 92 , 93 , 94 ], or acyl fluorides [ 95 , 96 ]. Moreover, formation α,β-unsaturated acylazolium is possible via two-electron oxidation of Breslow intermediate [ 97 , 98 , 99 , 100 , 101 , 102 , 103 ].…”

“…More recently, Ta and Sunden developed a clever and chemoselective NHC‐catalyzed oxidative amidation strategy for the synthesis of N ‐acylated indoles ( 37 ) under mild conditions (Scheme a) . This method provided synthetically valuable acyl indoles in good‐to‐excellent yields with broad substrate scope.…”
