Abstract
By means of simple Rh catalysis, the direct activation of the ortho-C-H bond in aryl enaminones has been realized with the enaminone structure as a traceless directing fragment. The products resulting from C-H alkenylation and further annulation via intramolecular C-H bond addition could be accessed depending upon the structure of alkenes. The annulated products could be used for the easy synthesis of valuable 2-aza-fluorenones in a one-pot operation by employing NH4OAc.
期刊介绍:
Organic Letters invites original reports of fundamental research in all branches of the theory and practice of organic, physical organic, organometallic,medicinal, and bioorganic chemistry. Organic Letters provides rapid disclosure of the key elements of significant studies that are of interest to a large portion of the organic community. In selecting manuscripts for publication, the Editors place emphasis on the originality, quality and wide interest of the work. Authors should provide enough background information to place the new disclosure in context and to justify the rapid publication format. Back-to-back Letters will be considered. Full details should be reserved for an Article, which should appear in due course.
