Preparation of 1,5-Methano-2,3,4,5- tetrahydro-1H-3-benzazepine via Pd-Catalyzed Cyclization

Abstract: [reaction: see text] A new approach to prepare 1,5-methano-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-3-benzanepine (1) is discussed. This strategy utilized a tandem Michael addition and Pd-catalyzed cyclization to afford cyanobenzofulvene acetal 13. This indene intermediate (13) was subjected to hydrogenolysis to provide an amino ester (12) and was cyclized with base to afford lactam 5. The lactam (5) was reduced with borane to afford the desired benzazepine (1).

“…However, as both of these routes were found to be cumbersome upon scale-up due to the use of unstable and toxic reagents, a third strategy was developed utilising non-toxic commodity reagents (Scheme 44, pathway C) [110]. Therefore, 2-bromophenylacetonitrile ( 4.7 ) was subjected to a Michael addition with acrylate 4.8 followed by a Pd-catalysed cyclisation yielding indene 4.9 [111]. Under hydrogenation conditions this material furnished an amino-ester intermediate, which upon treatment with base produces lactam 4.10 .…”

“…The C–H arylation of 13 with 4-iodo- o -xylene was conducted on scales ranging from 77 mg to 2.5 g of substrate, with nearly identical yields of 14e (43% and 38% isolated yield, respectively). Based on the established synthesis of varenicline, an independent synthesis of these analogues by more traditional methods would require parallel multistep sequences 30 . In a similar fashion, our method proved effective for the late-stage C–H functionalization of the natural product cytisine ( 15 , a nicotine addiction treatment), converting 16 to 17 in 25% yield.…”

“…This prompted the search for an alternative strategy, not based on a DA reaction, which ultimately proved to be compatible with commercial‐scale requirements 113. 118 This example illustrates the typical difficulties of scaling up a DA reaction (especially when using cyclopentadiene monomer as a reagent) because of the heat of formation of the product and polymerization of the starting material. In this example, even though clinical batches were prepared by using this [4+2] cycloaddition pathway, a more competitive route was eventually found for industrial manufacturing.…”
