We herein report for the first time an unusual decomposition of 2-nitrophenyl-substituted -formyl pyrazolines under Bechamp reduction condition employed to yield 2-aryl quinolines exclusively instead of pyrazolo[1,5-]quinazolines. The reaction investigation suggests acid-mediated cleavage of followed by a retro-Michael addition, and a subsequent in situ intramolecular reductive cyclization through a modified Friedlander mechanism afforded 2-aryl quinolines () in good yields. The proposed mechanistic pathways were supported via experimental evidence and density functional theory studies. B3LYP/6-31+G(d) analysis indicated the involvement of trans-2-hydroxyaminochalcone as a key intermediate and its isomerization and cyclization, leading to unusual product formation.
我们在此首次报道,在用于仅生成2-芳基喹啉而非吡唑并[1,5-]喹唑啉的贝尚还原条件下,2-硝基苯基取代的甲酰基吡唑啉发生了不寻常的分解。反应研究表明,在酸介导下断裂,随后进行逆迈克尔加成,接着通过改进的弗里德兰德机理进行原位分子内还原环化,以良好的产率得到了2-芳基喹啉()。所提出的机理途径得到了实验证据和密度泛函理论研究的支持。B3LYP/6-31+G(d)分析表明反式-2-羟基氨基查尔酮作为关键中间体的参与及其异构化和环化,导致了不寻常产物的形成。
