Abstract
An operationally simple and expeditious protocol for Ru(II)-catalyzed ortho-C(sp2)–H hydroxyalkylation of phthalazinones using commercially available ethyl glyoxalate in 2-Me-THF is reported. This greener approach involves the imine nitrogen on the phthalazinones as a directing group to effect the regioselective hydroxyalkylation. Ample examples of biologically relevant hydroxyalkylated phthalazinones were prepared, and relevant controlled studies were performed to decipher the reaction mechanism.
