Abstract

A grinding-induced, atom-economic, rapid, efficient, one-pot protocol was developed for the synthesis of pharmaceutically relevant benzo-1,4-diazepin-5-ones in excellent yields (72-91%) and high regioselectivities. The method involves a ring-opening-ring-closure cascade of aziridines with anthranilic acids by grinding the neat reactants at room temperature in the presence of lithium bromide as a mild catalyst. Among the advantages of this protocol are its economic viability, the ability to recycle the catalyst, and the formation of water as the only byproduct.

Key words

heterocycles - cyclizations - solid-phase synthesis - cascade reactions - benzodiazepines
