Palladium-catalyzed cyclization of bromoenynamides to tricyclic azacycles: synthesis of trikentrin-like frameworks

Abstract

Palladium-catalyzed cascade cyclization of bromoenynamides equipped with an additional alkyne or ynamide substituent affords azatricyclic products. Using 5- to 7-membered ring tethers, this chemistry offers a regiospecific route to highly-functionalized azacycles. Elaboration to the trikentrin B skeleton is achieved from the arylsilane cyclization products.
