Tsuchikama, Kyoji; Hashimoto, Yu-ki; Endo, Kohei; Shibata, Takanori published the artcile< Iridium-Catalyzed Selective Synthesis of 4-Substituted Benzofurans and Indoles via Directed Cyclodehydration>, Synthetic Route of 139139-93-8, the main research area is iridium catalyst aryloxy arylamino ketone cyclization benzofuran indole preparation.
A directed cyclization-dehydration cascade of α-aryloxy ketones and α-arylamino ketones was efficiently catalyzed by a cationic iridium-BINAP complex, which afforded various types of 4-substituted benzofurans and indoles in high yields with complete regioselectivity. The newly developed protocol also enabled the enantioselective preparation of chiral 4-acetyloxindole using a chiral iridium catalyst.
Advanced Synthesis & Catalysis published new progress about Cyclization. 139139-93-8 belongs to class chiral-phosphine-ligands, and the molecular formula is C44H40P2, Synthetic Route of 139139-93-8.
