Abstract
The preparation of bridged benzo[1,5]oxazocines and benzo[1,4]diazepines
is demonstrated from simple aniline and aldehyde starting materials. A
one-pot condensation/6π electrocyclization is followed by an
intramolecular trapping of the 2,3-dihydroquinoline intermediate by
nitrogen or oxygen nucleophiles to give bridged seven- and
eight-membered products. Using 3-hydroxypyridinecarboxaldehydes results
in a stable zwitterionic structure that can undergo a diastereoselective
reduction under hydrogenative conditions. A similar
cyclization/hydrogenation pathway with excellent diastereoselectivity is
also demonstrated from 2-pyridyl-substituted
1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines.
