Abstract

The electrochemical methods for asymmetric indolization are still elusive and pose a significant challenge. Taking advantage of 2-alkynylanilines as electrochemically compatible indolyl equivalents, we herein represent a mild and highly enantioselective electrocatalytic process for tandem C–H indolization to form 2,3′-biindolyl atropisomers along with hydrogen evolution reaction. Integrated experimental and computational mechanistic studies revealed that a sequential C–H metalation/nucleophilic cyclization/reductive elimination/anodic oxidation sequence involving a RhIII–RhI–RhIII catalytic cycle accounts for the established transformation.

电催化对映选择性串联C-H吲哚缩二聚体:反应发展及其机理
电化学方法的不对称注射仍然是难以捉摸的,并提出了重大的挑战。利用2-炔基苯胺作为电化学相容的吲哚基等价物,我们在此提出了一种温和且高度对映选择性的电催化过程,用于串联C-H吲哚形成2,3 ' -双吲哚基托普二聚体并伴有析氢反应。综合实验和计算机制研究表明,C-H金属化/亲核环化/还原消除/阳极氧化序列涉及rhiii - rhhi - rhiii催化循环,可以解释所建立的转化。
