[Synthetic studies on aromatic heterocyclic compounds].
This review covers the concise synthesis of simple coumarin with salicyl aldehydes and Wittig reagent, and a convenient synthesis of polycyclic aromatic heterocyclic compounds using the aryl-aryl coupling reaction of aryl benzamides and aryl benzoates with a Pd reagent is presented. In the first section, the reactions of salicyl aldehydes with OMe, OH, Br, CO(2)Me, and NO(2) groups with carbethoxymethylenetriphenylphophorane are described. Specifically, the reaction of 3-nitrosalicylaldehyde with amines gave benzoxazoles in moderate yield. In the second section, the syntheses of benzo[c]phenanthridine alkaloids, quinazoline alkaloids, and graphislactones in the Pd-mediated biaryl coupling reaction are described. Moreover, the synthesis of benzonaphthazepine and pyrrolophenanthridine alkaloids utilizing regioselective C-H activation with intramolecular coordination of a benzylamine to Pd is described, and the effects of oxygen substituents in the benzoyl part of benzanilides on the coupling position in its biaryl coupling reaction are presented. An effective Pd reagent for the coupling reaction of aryl tolyflate and arene was developed.
