Bifunctional Phosphine Ligand-Enabled Gold(I)-Catalyzed O-Nucleophilic Addition of N-Hydroxybenzo[1,2,3]-triazin-4(3H)-ones to Alkynes Followed by [3,3]-Rearrangement: Simultaneous Formation of C-O and C-N Bonds

摘要

We describe a gold (I)-catalyzed tandem O-nucleophilic addition/[3,3]-rearrangement reaction of N-hydroxybenzo[1,2,3]-triazin-4(3H)-ones with alkynes enabled by a biphenyl-2-yl phosphine ligand featuring a pendant amide moiety (L1). A variety of 1-(2-oxo-2-arylethyl)benzo [d][1,2,3]triazin-4(1H)-one derivatives were synthesized in good to excellent yields. The present protocol gives a rare example of simultaneous formation of C-O and C-N bonds in the gold(I)-catalyzed [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangements.
