Abstract

An efficient Pd(II)-catalyzed cascade approach was established for the synthesis of 9-chloro-1H-benzo[b]furo[3,4-e]azepin-1-ones starting from N-propargyl arylamines having a pendant α,β-unsaturated ester scaffold. The mechanism of this sequential process involved intramolecular syn-oxypalladation followed by olefin insertion and ortho sp2-C-Cl bond formation reactions. This high atom- and step-economical cascade sequence generated two heterocycle rings and three new bonds in a single synthetic operation.
