    Copper-Catalyzed Simultaneous Activation of C–H and N–H Bonds: Three-Component One-Pot Cascade Synthesis of Multi­substituted Imidazoles

    No full text
    A copper-catalyzed expedient, practical, and straightforward approach for the one-pot three-component modular synthesis of multisubstituted imidazoles has been described by using arylacetic acids, N-arylbenzamidines, and nitroalkanes. The reaction involves simultaneous activation of C–H and N–H bonds of arylacetic acids and N-arylbenzamidines, respectively. The use of inexpensive copper sulfate as a catalyst, readily available starting materials, and Celite-free workup makes this protocol economically viable. Multisubstituted imidazoles were obtained in moderate to good yields with significant functional group tolerance and high regioselectivity

    A convenient and effective FeCl3 catalyzed one-pot three component protocol for the synthesis of 1,2,4-trisubstituted imidazoles from arylacetic acids, N-arylbenzamidines and nitromethane via simultaneous CH and NH bond activation has been developed. The reaction involves CH activation of arylacetic acid to form aromatic aldehyde which on condensation with N-arylbenzamidine gives azadiene. Nitromethane on Michael addition with azadiene produces ring annulated intermediate which upon subsequent cyclization-elimination sequence offers imidazole. The process utilizes readily available arylacetic acids and inexpensive catalyst. This user friendly protocol provided 1,2,4-trisubstituted imidazoles in moderate to good yields with high functional group tolerance and ample substrate scope

    A metal-free and efficient tandem synthesis of 3-acyl 3,4-dihydro-2H-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine-1,1-dioxides and 3-acyl-2H-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine-1,1-dioxides has been developed via C−H functionalization of ethynylarenes and ethenylarenes followed by condensation with 2-aminobenzenesulfonamide. The reaction involves the formation of arylglyoxal as an intermediate from multiform substrates through Kornblum oxidation in the presence of iodine and DMSO. Use of simple and readily available starting materials, inexpensive reagent, broad substrate scope and a very simple operation are noteworthy features of this protocol. This method provides an easy access to pharmaceutically important 3-acyl-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine-1,1-dioxides in good yields
