Abstract
The cascade reaction of cyclic 2‐diazo‐1,3‐diketones and diarylamines is efficiently developed, enabling straightforward access to a series of 2‐aminocyclopentenones in good to excellent yields (71–90%). The procedure is proposed to go through a sequence of Wolff rearrangement via initial ketene formation, nucleophilic addition/keto‐enol tautomerization, and Rh2(OAc)4‐catalyzed decarbonylative amination followed by an oxidation process. A broad range of substrates are compatible with this mild reaction system, thereby providing a facile and practical approach for constructing important skeleton of aminocyclopentenone.
期刊介绍:
Advanced Synthesis & Catalysis (ASC) is the leading primary journal in organic, organometallic, and applied chemistry.
The high impact of ASC can be attributed to the unique focus of the journal, which publishes exciting new results from academic and industrial labs on efficient, practical, and environmentally friendly organic synthesis. While homogeneous, heterogeneous, organic, and enzyme catalysis are key technologies to achieve green synthesis, significant contributions to the same goal by synthesis design, reaction techniques, flow chemistry, and continuous processing, multiphase catalysis, green solvents, catalyst immobilization, and recycling, separation science, and process development are also featured in ASC. The Aims and Scope can be found in the Notice to Authors or on the first page of the table of contents in every issue.
