Additive-Controlled Divergent Synthesis of Tetrasubstituted 1,3-Enynes and Alkynylated 3H-Pyrrolo[1,2-a]indol-3-ones via Rhodium Catalysis

摘要

Herein, we report the additive-controlled divergent synthesis of tetrasubstituted 1,3-enynes and alkynylated 3H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]indol-3-ones through rhodium-catalyzed C-H alkenylation/DG migration and [3+2] annulation, respectively. This protocol features rare directing group migration in 1,3-diyne-involved C-H activation, excellent regio- and stereoselectivity, excellent monofunctionalization over difunctionalization, broad substrate scope, moderate to high yields, good functional group compatibility, and mild redox-neutral conditions.
