RESUMO
Gold(I)-catalyzed reactions of electron-poor alkynes are still a challenging process. A straightforward synthesis of phosphorus-based heterocycles, namely, 2-phenyl 1H-isophosphinoline 2-oxides 1, is reported. The reaction used PPh3AuCl precatalyst in combination with triflic acid under microwave activation and afforded isophosphinoline 2-oxides 1 in moderate to quantitative yields through a fully regioselective 6-endo-dig hydroarylation cyclization, paving the way toward an effective synthesis of phosphorus heterocycles.
RESUMO
Study of the intramolecular aza-Michael addition reaction from an aminofluorovinylsulfone opens a new route for the synthesis of pyrrolidine derivatives. An unexpected diastereoselective cyclization reaction was observed, leading preferentially to the anti-N-benzylpyrrolidine sulfone. The resulting sulfone was reacted with aldehydes to access ß-substituted α-fluoroalkenyl pyrrolidines in one step.
