A Metal‐ and Azide‐free Oxidative Coupling Reaction for the Synthesis of [1,2,3]Triazolo[1,5‐a]quinolines and their Application to Construct C−C and C‐P Bonds, 2‐Cyclopropylquinolines and Imidazo[1,5‐a]quinolines

Abstract

Abstract An iodine‐promoted one‐pot cascade oxidative annulation reaction has been developed for the synthesis of [1,2,3]triazolo[1,5‐a]quinolines from methyl azaarenes and N ‐tosylhydrazines. The reaction has a broad substrate scope and can be easily scaled up to gram‐scale. 1,2,3‐Triazoles are an important skeletal structure for the construction of C−C and C−P bonds, 2‐cyclopropylquinolines and imidazo[1,5‐a]quinolines, for which different synthetic applications were explored. magnified image
