The site-selective C-H bond functionalization of heteroarenes can eventually provide chemists with great techniques for editing and building complex molecular scaffolds. During the past decade, benzo-fused N-heterocycles such as indoles quinolines have been among most widely investigated organic templates. Early developments led to on pyrrole pyridine cores quinolines; however, benzenoid ring has remained a challenge in catalysis. In this review, we elaborate recent highly challenging bonds less-reactive core quinolines. These findings are mainly described selective directing group assisted strategies, remote their reaction mechanisms. underlying principle each strategy is elucidated, which aims facilitate design more advanced structure heterocycles based bioactive molecules, synthetic drugs, material aspects. Moreover, challenges perspectives catalytic access arene backbone also proposed conclusion section.

Synthesis of C‐Aryl Glycosides by C−H Functionalization

Chemistry - A European Journal, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 29(32)

Опубликована: Март 21, 2023

Abstract In recent years, the synthesis of C‐aryl glycosides hrough C−H functionalization has attracted extensive attention organic chemists due to its steps and atomic economy. this concept, we systematically summarizes with diverse regioselectivity diastereoselectivity from perspective arylation glycosylation arenes. It can be found that a series recently developed reactions have higher site‐selectivity diastereomeric selectivity than Friedel–Crafts reaction. The reaction conditions are milder, which compatible acid‐sensitive protective groups, such as acetals or ketals, deprotection is more convenient. seen there few reports on remote aromatic hydrocarbons, new field needs further research. addition, lot shortcomings, need explored: a) precise regulation stereoselectivity in process also optimization; b) research mechanism almost limited DFT calculation, no exact experimental evidence. For key parts, specific between cyclo‐metal intermediates glycosyl donors ortho ‐C Ar −H still unclear; c) fact aryl glycoside compounds contain bare hydroxyl groups practical applications, it an urgent problem realize compatibility substrates containing naked remove by mild efficient method after reaction; d) rapidly developing field, study greener, economical arenes future, will conducive biological application significance.
