Heterocyclization Reagents for Rapid Assembly of N‐Fused Heteroarenes from Alkenes
Huihui Zhang, Min Wang, Xinxin Wu, Chen Zhu
Abstract
N-Fused heterocycles are of particular use and upmost importance in multiple fields. Herein, we disclose a conceptually new approach for the rapid assembly of N-fused heteroarenes from alkenes. A portfolio of strategically designed heterocyclization reagents are readily prepared for the cascade reaction. A plethora of N-fused heteroarenes including seven types of heterocyclic core are furnished. The protocol features a broad functional-group compatibility and high product diversity, and provides a practical tool for late-stage heteroarene elaboration.
