An efficient route to 2-oxindoles bearing an all-carbon quaternary center at the pseudobenzylic position has been developed via a DDQ-mediated Intramolecular-Dehydrogenative-Coupling (IDC). The methodology involves a one-pot C-alkylation of β-N-arylamido esters (7) concomitant with dehydrogenative-coupling in the presence of stoichiometric amount of DDQ. A tentative mechanistic route has been proposed for the oxidative coupling. The methodology provides a two-step entry to the ergoline structure of ergot alkaloids.
一种通过 DDQ 介导的分子内脱氢偶联(IDC)在伪苄位处构建含有全碳季碳原子的 2-氧吲哚的有效途径已经被开发出来。该方法涉及在化学计量的 DDQ 存在下,β-N-芳酰胺酯(7)的一锅 C-烷基化与脱氢偶联同时进行。对于氧化偶联,提出了一种推测的机理途径。该方法为麦角生物碱的麦角灵结构提供了两步入口。
