Synthesis of Imidazo[1,5-a]quinolines and Imidazo[5,1-a]isoquinolines via the In-Mediated Allylation of Reissert Compounds

摘要

Allylindium reagents have been used extensively for the introduction of allyl group in a Barbier type manner to various electrophiles.Although many reactive electrophiles such as aldehydes and imines have been used in the indium-mediated allylations, the reaction of less reactive nitrile has not been reported much except the first successful results of Yamamoto group and our recent papers.
