Title: Synthesis of functionalized 1H-indenes via copper-catalyzed arylative cyclization of arylalkynes with aromatic sulfonyl chlorides. Author: Zeng X, Ilies L, Nakamura E. Journal: J Am Chem Soc; 2011 Nov 09; 133(44):17638-40. PubMed ID: 21988538. Abstract: A variety of polysubstituted 1H-indenes can be prepared through the copper-catalyzed arylative cyclization of simple arylalkynes with commercially available aromatic sulfonyl chlorides that function as an aryl group donor. The reaction tolerates a broad range of functional groups, including bromide and iodide, nitrile, ketone, and nitro groups. The reaction allowed the synthesis of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, such as a bis(indene), indacene, and fused polyarene derivatives, some of them showing strong fluorescence in solution and the solid state.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
