A tandem [3 + 2] cycloaddition/reductive cyclization of nitrochalcones with activated methylene isocyanides for the efficient synthesis of pyrrolo[2,3-b]quinolones is reported. In this reaction, the in situ generated dihydropyrroline acts as the internal reductant to convert the nitro into an electrophilic nitroso group, which undergoes subsequent C-N bond formation. Transition-metal-free, simple experimental procedure and ready accessibility of starting materials characterize the present transformation.
硝基查耳酮与活性亚甲基异氰化物的串联[3 + 2]环加成/还原环化反应高效合成了吡咯并[2,3-b]喹啉酮。在该反应中,原位生成的二氢吡咯啉充当内部还原剂,将硝基转化为亲电的亚硝基,随后进行 C-N 键形成。该转化具有无过渡金属、实验步骤简单以及起始原料易得的特点。
