A gold-catalyzed synthesis of cyclic 2-oxodienes from readily prepared propargyl alcohols and the subsequent Diels-Alder reaction are reported. The dehydrative cyclization reactions proceeded smoothly, and the dienes formed in situ were demonstrated to undergo cycloaddition with a variety of dienophiles. This method offers a new strategy for the synthesis of indolocarbazole alkaloids, whereby the convergent synthetic design allows for differentiation between the indole nitrogens.
报道了一种由容易制备的炔丙醇经金催化合成环状2-氧代二烯以及随后的狄尔斯-阿尔德反应。脱水环化反应顺利进行,原位生成的二烯被证明能与多种亲双烯体发生环加成反应。该方法为吲哚咔唑生物碱的合成提供了一种新策略,其中汇聚式合成设计能够区分吲哚氮原子。
