Abstract

The application of small molecules as synthetic blocks is a field of great meaning and full of challenges, especially the use of inert ether molecules, such as THF as starting materials. A versatile and easily handled cross-dehydrogenative coupling between ethers and quinaldine is reported here. Compared to the developed reaction, Selectfluor is used as a mild oxidant, and a variety of functional groups are tolerated. Nitrogen protection, anhydrous systems, and external base are not needed, making this method a convenient route to functional heterocycles.

Key words

cross-dehydrogenative coupling - Selectfluor - quinaldine - ethers - silver

17 6-Fluoro-2-methyl-4-(tetrahydrofuran-2-yl)quinoline (3a)To a 35 mL Schlenk tube equipped with a magnetic stir bar was charged 6-fluoro-2-methylquinoline (161 mg, 1.0 mmol, 1.0 equiv), Selectfluor (1.40 g, 4.0 mmol, 4.0 equiv), AgNO₃ (42.5 mg, 0.25 mmol, 0.25 equiv), H₂O (2.5 mL), and tetrahydrofuran (7.5 mL, THF/H₂O = 3:1). After stirring at 50 °C for the indicated time, the reaction mixture was diluted with 5 mL of saturated solution NaHCO₃ (5 mL) and extracted with EtOAc (3 × 20 mL). The combined organic extracts were washed with brine (2 × 20 mL), dried over Na₂SO₄, and concentrated in vacuo. Purification of the crude product by flash chromatography on silica gel using the indicated solvent system afforded the desired product.
