The rhodium-catalyzed intramolecular direct arylation of imidazole and benzimidazole derivatives via double C-H bond activation is described. This approach provides new access to a wide range of imidazo and benzimidazo[2,1-a]isoquinoline derivatives in moderate to high yields. This reaction provides an alternative method to the known Pd-catalyzed intramolecular oxidative cross-coupling reactions.
铑催化的咪唑和苯并咪唑衍生物的分子内直接芳基化反应是通过双 C-H 键活化来实现的。这种方法为广泛的咪唑并和苯并咪唑[2,1-a]异喹啉衍生物提供了新的合成途径,产率中等至高产率。该反应为已知的 Pd 催化的分子内氧化交叉偶联反应提供了一种替代方法。
