The first Re-catalyzed [4 + 1] annulation of azobenzenes with aldehydes was developed to furnish 2H-indazoles via isolable and characterized cyclic Re(I)-complexes. For the first time, the acetate-acceleration effect is showcased in Re-catalyzed C-H activation reactions. Remarkably, mechanistic studies revealed an irreversible aldehyde-insertion step, which is in sharp contrast to those of previous Rh- and Co-systems.
首次开发了偶氮苯与醛的再催化[4 + 1]环化反应,通过可分离和表征的环状铼(I)配合物制备2H-吲唑。首次在铼催化的C-H活化反应中展示了乙酸根加速效应。值得注意的是,机理研究揭示了一个不可逆的醛插入步骤,这与之前的铑和钴体系形成了鲜明对比。
