Synthesis of spiropyrans via the Rh(iii)-catalyzed annulation of 3-aryl-2H-benzo[b][1,4]oxazines with diazo ketoesters

Abstract

Rh(III)-Catalyzed 1 : 2 coupling of 3-aryl-2H-benzo[b][1,4]oxazines with α-diazo-β-ketoesters has been realized for the mild synthesis of spiropyrans. The reaction proceeded via twofold C–H activation followed by unusual [3+3] and [4+2] annulation with decent functional group tolerance. Moreover, a pyranoid-skeleton intermediate was isolated as a key intermediate as a result of monoalkylation and enol oxygen annulation, which offers direct mechanistic insight.
