Isocoumarins and dihydroisocoumarins are important skeletons with a wide range of biological activities, such as anti-bacterial, anti-allergy, anti-fungal, anti-tumor, and anti-HIV properties. Herein, we demonstrated divergent syntheses of isocoumarins and 3,4-dihydroisocoumarins by intramolecular dehydrogenative cyclization of 2-(3-oxobutyl) benzoic acids. This transformation undergoes C-H bonds and O-H bonds coupling in air using copper salt. The reactions may undergo free radical process.
异香豆素和二氢异香豆素是具有广泛生物活性的重要骨架,如抗菌、抗过敏、抗真菌、抗肿瘤和抗HIV特性。在此,我们展示了通过2-(3-氧代丁基)苯甲酸的分子内脱氢环化反应来实现异香豆素和3,4-二氢异香豆素的不同合成。该转化反应在空气中使用铜盐进行C-H键和O-H键的偶联。这些反应可能经历自由基过程。
