Abstract

An assembly of polycyclic N-heterocycles, with the formation of four bonds and three rings, was obtained in good yield by the sequential intramolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition via the N-metallation Ag(I)-catalysed imine route and subsequent Pictet-Spengler cyclisation.

Key words

N-metallation - azomethine ylide - intramolecular - 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition - Pictet-Spengler reaction

Representative Experimental Procedure of Compound 3a. A mixture of imine (1 mmol), silver(I) acetate (1.2 mmol) and Et₃N (1.2 mmol) in dry MeCN (6 mL) was stirred at r.t. for 3 h and quenched with aq NH₄Cl. The mixture was extracted with Et₂O (3 × 10 mL), washed with brine and dried over Na₂SO₄. After the removal of solvent under reduced pressure the residue was subjected to column chromatography on silica gel eluting with petroleum ether-EtOAc (4:1) to afford cycloadduct.

Representative Procedure for Pictet-Spengler Cyclisation. A mixture of cycloadduct (1 mmol), the aromatic aldehyde (1 mmol) and p-toluene sulfonic acid (0.1 mmol) in dry toluene was boiled under reflux using Dean-Stark apparatus. After 24 h the solvent was removed under vacuum and the crude product was purified by flash column chromatography with petroleum ether-EtOAc (9:1) as eluent to give the Pictet-Spengler cyclised product.
