Literature Information
Xue-Qiang Chu, Zhen-Hua Xing, Hua Meng, Xiao-Ping Xu, Shun-Jun Ji
A Cu-mediated/catalyzed selective oxidative dual C–H bond cleavage of an arene and alkylnitrile or acetone is reported. This method provides a novel approach to highly functionalized fluorene and pyrroloindole derivatives, which are useful in pharmaceutical and photoelectronic areas. In this reaction, two new C(sp3)–C(sp3) and C(Ar)–C(sp3) bonds, a quaternary center and a five-membered ring are simultaneously formed.
