RESUMEN
In this study, a series of variously substituted 2,3-dihydroquinolin-4-imines (DQIs) were synthesized from N-substituted propargylanilines by copper(I)-catalyzed annulation. The approach adopted in this study under mild, effective conditions exhibited broad substrate tolerance, particularly for functional groups substituted on anilines. Most of the DQI derivatives synthesized under optimal conditions were obtained in good isolated yields of 63-88 %. 2,3-Dihydroquinolinimine thus obtained was easily converted to important structures like 2,3-dihydroquinolone and tetrahydrobenzodiazepin-5-one, confirming the importance of this strategy in constructing various heterocycles. Surprisingly, 2,3-dihydroquinolinimines thus obtained exhibited bright fluorescence with quantum yields up to 66 %. The density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) calculations were performed for understanding the excited-state nature of DQI system. Accordingly, a tailored DQI derivative bearing methoxy group at C-6 position and acetoxy group at C-7 position was designed and synthesized to give emission at 559â nm with redshift compared to the 7-methoxy substituted DQI. A detailed study of DQI structures with their photophysical properties was performed with five control molecules and consequently demonstrated the uniqueness of the chemical structures of DQIs.
RESUMEN
A rapid growth in synthetic methods for the preparation of diverse organic molecules using N-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles is of great interest in organic synthesis. Transition metals are generally used to activate the α-imino diazo intermediates. Metal-free methods have not been studied in detail, but can be a good complement to transition metal catalysis in the mild reaction conditions. We herein report a novel method for the preparation of 2,3-dihydroquinolin-4-imine and chroman-4-imine analogs from their corresponding N-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles in the absence of metal catalysts. To achieve intramolecular annulation, the introduction of an electron-donating group is required at the meta position of N-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazole methyl anilines. The inclusion of tailored substituents on the aniline moieties and nitrogen atoms enhances the nucleophilicity of the phenyl π-electrons, thus allowing them to undergo a Friedel-Crafts-type reaction with the highly electrophilic ketenimines. This metal-free method was carefully optimized to generate a variety of dihydroquinolin-4-imines and chroman-4-imines in moderate-to-good yields.

An efficient Cu/Rh-catalyzed method is proposed for the synthesis of 3-indolylimines from N-propargylanilines through Rh(II)-catalyzed denitrogenative annulation of N-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles. Further combined with hydrolysis or reduction, a one-pot method is developed to enable the direct incorporation of an imine, aldehyde, or amine group into an indole system from an alkyne. A variety of substituted 3-indolylimines, indole-3-carboxaldehydes, and 3-Indolylmethanamines are synthesized in good yields.
RESUMEN
A copper(I)-catalyzed synthesis of substituted dihydropyrimidin-4-ones from propargyl amides via the formation of ketenimine intermediate has been successfully developed; the synthesis afforded good isolated yields (80-95%). The mild reaction conditions at room temperature allow the reaction to proceed to completion in a few hours without altering the stereochemistry. Further, by involving a variety of reactive nucleophiles, the obtained substituted dihydropyrimidin-4-ones were elegantly transformed into the corresponding ß- and ß(3)-amino acid analogues.

A mild method for effectively removing the fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) group using sodium azide was developed. Without base, sodium azide completely deprotected N (α)-Fmoc-amino acids in hours. The solvent-dependent conditions were carefully studied and then optimized by screening different sodium azide amounts and reaction temperatures. A variety of Fmoc-protected amino acids containing residues masked with different protecting groups were efficiently and selectively deprotected by the optimized reaction. Finally, a biologically significant hexapeptide, angiotensin IV, was successfully synthesized by solid phase peptide synthesis using the developed sodium azide method for all Fmoc removals. The base-free condition provides a complement method for Fmoc deprotection in peptide chemistry and modern organic synthesis.
