Abstract

Thermal rearrangement of 1-aryloxy-4-carbazolyloxybut-2-ynes, regio- and stereoselectively led to the formation of benzofuropyranocarbazoles in a single step in good yields. An investigation into the mechanism of the formation of these heteroannulated pterocarpan derivatives led to the serendipitous formation of isomeric benzofurofurocarbazole ring system.

Key words

sigmatropic rearrangements - heterocycles - regioselectivity - ring contractions

All new compounds reported here gave satisfactory spectroscopic and/or analytical data. General Procedure for the Rearrangement of 3 to 4.
A solution of compound 3 (0.6 mmol) in N,N-diethylaniline (6 mL) was heated to reflux for 12 h under nitrogen atmosphere. It was then allowed to come to r.t. and then poured into ice-cold 2 N HCl (50 mL) while stirring with a glass rod. The aqueous solution was extracted with EtOAc (3 × 25 mL) and the combined organic extract was washed sequentially with sat. aq NaHCO₃ (2 × 20 mL), H₂O (20 mL), brine (25 mL) and then dried (Na₂SO₄). It was then filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to leave a solid mass, which was chromatographed over silica gel using mixture of EtOAc and PE as eluent.
