Rhodium(II)-Catalysed Skeletal Rearrangement of Ether Tethered N-Sulfonyl 1,2,3-Triazoles: a Rapid Approach to 2-Aminoindanone and Dihydroisoquinoline Derivatives
文摘
The skeletal rearrangement of ether tethered N-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles has been achieved by rhodium(II) catalysis. This method offers a rapid entry to 2-aminoindanone and dihydroisoquinoline architectures which can be further transformed to other valuable building blocks, such as vicinal aminoindanols, isoquinolines and isoquinolinones. A pathway involving an azavinyl rhodium carbene intermediate was proposed according to a preliminary mechanistic study.
