Chemoselective [3 + 2] annulation of oxime acetate with 2-aryl-3-ethoxycarbonyl-pyrroline-4,5-dione: an entry to pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrrole derivatives

Abstract

A novel chemoselective [3 + 2] annulation reaction of easily accessible ketoxime acetate with 2-aryl-3-ethoxycarbonyl pyrroline-4,5-dione has been developed for the synthesis of unknown pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrrole frameworks. This method involves copper-mediated N–O bond cleavage followed by the formation of carbon–carbon and carbon–nitrogen bonds. This operationally simple protocol provides broader functional group compatibility and good yields.
