Oxidative cyclization reaction of 2-aryl-substituted cinnamates to form phenanthrene carboxylates by using MoCl5.
2014
The oxidative cyclization reaction of 2-aryl cinnamates and derivatives thereof can be easily performed with MoCl5 as the oxidant. This powerful reagent allows oxidative coupling reactions for which other reagents fail. The best results are obtained when the 2-phenyl substituent of the cinnamate is equipped with two methoxy groups. Even iodo moieties in the bay region of phenanthrene are tolerated under the reaction conditions. If naphthalene moieties are involved, a rearrangement of the skeleton occurs, providing an elegant route to highly functionalized angular arenes. The cyclization is demonstrated for 15 example substrates with isolated yields of up to 99 % for the phenanthrene derivat…
Oxidative Coupling Reactions of 1,3-Diarylpropene Derivatives to Dibenzo[a,c]cycloheptenes by PIFA
2011
The oxidative cyclization reactions of a variety of α-benzyl-cinnamates can be selectively performed with hypervalent iodine as an oxidant. The dibenzo[a,c]cycloheptenes were isolated in up to 55 % yield. When an oxo substrate is applied, the yield was significantly increased. With this synthetic approach, a central intermediate for the synthesis of metasequirin-B was obtained in three steps from very simple starting materials. For this transformation, both aryl moieties have to be activated.

A quantitative study of substituent effects on oxidative cyclization of some 2-methylsubstituted aldehydes. Thiosemicarbazones induced by ferric chlo…
1996
In order to gain further mechanistical information about the cyclization of thiosemicarbazones and thiosemicarbazone-type substrates induced by metallic salts as oxidizing agents, we performed the synthesis of substrates 1a-s and a kinetic study of the oxidative cyclization of 1 to 5-imino-Δ2-1,3,4-thiadiazole 2 and 1,2,4-triazoline-5-thione 3 derivatives induced by methanolic ferric chloride solutions. The results of cyclization were compared to those of corresponding semicarbazones. The kinetic data were analyzed by means of the Hammett's equation and ρ values discussed.

The reagent mixture MoCl5/TiCl4 is successfully applied for the oxidative cyclization of α-aryl substituted cinnamates to the corresponding phenanthrenes.
A study of the mechanism of the oxidative cyclization of benzaldehyde semicarbazones induced by cupric perchlorate in acetonitrile
1995
Treatment of benzaldehyde semicarbazones 1a-i with cupric perchlorate in acetonitrile at 40 provided selectively the corresponding 1,2,4-triazolin-5-ones 2a-i. The relative rate constants for 2a-i formation were determined by the competitive method. The results obtained showed that electron-donating substituents (methyl and methoxy) increase the reaction rate, while the reverse was found for electron-withdrawing substituents (chloro and nitro group). The reactivity data are discussed on the grounds of two possible mechanisms.
Solvent-Enhanced Diastereo- and Regioselectivity in the PdII-Catalyzed Synthesis of Six- and Eight-Membered Heterocycles viacis-Aminopalladation
2009
The Pd(II)-catalyzed intramolecular oxidative cyclization of tosyl-protected cis- and trans-N-allyl-2-aminocyclohexanecarboxamides was examined, and efficient syntheses of cyclohexane-fused pyrimidin-4-ones and 1,5-diazocin-6-ones were developed. In the course of the research, a marked solvent effect was observed on both the regio- and diastereoselectivity. Additionally, a novel Pd(II)-mediated domino oxidation, oxidative amination reaction was discovered. Our experimental and theoretical findings suggest that the reactions proceed via a cis-aminopalladation mechanism.
A quantitative study of substituent effects on oxidative cyclization of some 2-aryl-substituted aldehyde thiosemicarbazones induced by ferric chlorid…
1999
As a development of our previous work, we performed a kinetic study of the oxidative cyclization reaction of some 2,4-diaryl-substituted aldehyde thiosemicarbazones 1a-n induced by ferric chloride and by cupric perchlorate. The results of cyclization of 1a-n were compared to those of the corresponding 2-methyl derivatives. The kinetic data were analyzed by means of the Hammett's equation.
Oxidative cyclization of some aldehyde semicarbazones induced by metallic salts
1993
The oxidative cyclization of some aldehyde semicarbazones 10 with four different oxidizing agents has been effected. The structure of the semicarbazones and the nature of cyclizing agent affected the rate and yield of cyclization but they did not show any influence on the regiochemistry of reaction. In fact, 1,2,4-triazoline 20 was the only heterocyclic ring obtained by the cyclization reaction.
