Abstract

Upon reaction with IPy2BF4, 4-substituted anilines give regioselectively the corresponding o- iodoanilines in nearly quantitative yield, in a process that can be carried out on a multigram scale. Palladium-catalyzed coupling of the resulting 2-iodoanilines with (trimethylsilyl) acetylene (TMSA), followed by efficient CuI-mediated nitrogen cyclization onto alkynes with concurrent elimination of the TMS substituent, allows a straightforward elaboration of 5- ...
