A ruthenium-catalyzed free amine directed (5+1) annulation of anilines with olefins: diverse synthesis of phenanthridine derivatives

Abstract

A ruthenium(II)-catalyzed cross-ring (5+1) annulation between 2-aminobiphenyls and activated olefins is disclosed for succinct synthesis of valuable phenanthridine scaffolds. The protocol avails a common organic functional group, free amine, as a directing group and represents a unique combination of C–H activation/annulation/C–C bond cleavage cascade that bodes well in the production of bioactive alkaloids including trisphaeridine and bicolorine.
