A facile cascade reaction for the site selective synthesis of 2-cyanochromones is described. By using simple -hydroxyphenyl enaminones and potassium ferrocyanide trihydrate (K[Fe(CN)]·3HO) as starting materials and I/AlCl as promoters, the products are furnished via tandem chromone ring formation and C-H cyanation. The formation of 3-iodochromone and a formal 1,2-hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) process account for the unconventional site selectivity. In addition, the synthesis of 2-cyanoquinolin-4-one has been realized by employing corresponding 2-aminophenyl enaminone as substrate.
描述了一种用于 2-氰基色酮的选择性合成的简便级联反应。以简单的 -羟基苯亚胺酮和三水合亚铁氰化钾(K[Fe(CN)]·3HO)为起始原料,I/AlCl 为促进剂,通过串联色酮环形成和 C-H 氰化反应得到产物。3-碘色酮的形成和一个形式的 1,2-氢原子转移(HAT)过程解释了非传统的位置选择性。此外,通过使用相应的 2-氨基苯亚胺酮作为底物,实现了 2-氰基喹啉-4-酮的合成。
