2-Bromopyridines as Versatile Synthons for Heteroarylated 2-Pyridones via Ru(II)-Mediated Domino C–O/C–N/C–C Bond Formation Reactions
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: A novel methodology for the synthesis of 2-pyridones bearing a 2-pyridyl group on nitrogen and carbon atoms, starting from 2-bromopyridines, was developed employing a simple Ru(II)–KOPiv–Na2CO3 catalytic system. Unsubstituted 2-bromopyridine was successfully converted to the penta-heteroarylated 2-pyridone product using this method. Preliminary mechanistic studies revealed a possible synthetic pathway leading to the multi-heteroarylated 2-pyridone products, involving consecutive oxygen incorporation, a Buchwald–Hartwig-type reaction, and C–H bond activation.
