Halopalladation Cyclization of Alkynes with Azides: Selective Synthesis of 4-Haloisoquinolines and 3-Haloindoles
Publication History
Publication Date:
10 March 2011 (online)
Abstract
A new, selective method for the synthesis of 4-haloisoquinolines and 3-haloindoles is presented by the halopalladation cyclizations of alkynes with azides. In the presence of PdX2 (X = Br, Cl) and halide sources, a variety of 2-alkynyl benzyl azides or 2-alkynyl aryl azides smoothly underwent the halopalladation cyclization reaction to afford the corresponding 3-substituted 4-haloisoquinolines and 2-substituted 3-haloindoles in moderate to good yields.
Key words

General Procedure
for the Chloropalladation Reaction: To a flame-dried Schlenk
tube equipped with a magnetic stirring bar were added azide 1 (0.3 mmol), PdCl2 (5 mol%), CuCl2 (3
equiv), Cy2NH2Cl (0.2 equiv) and CH2ClCH2Cl
(5 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at 80 ˚C for 24
h until complete consumption of starting material as monitored by TLC
and GC-MS analysis. After the reaction was finished, the
mixture was poured into EtOAc, washed with brine (3 × 10
mL), and extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic layers were
dried over anhyd Na2SO4 and evaporated under vacuum.
The residue was purified by flash column chromatography on silica
gel (hexane-EtOAc) to afford the desired product.
