A practical method for accessing amino-isocoumarins through redox-neutral C-H/O-H annulation using a Rh(III) complex has been described. The use of N-functionalized cyclic carbonates is crucial for efficient catalytic turnover, leading to the preparation of a broad range of amino-isocoumarin derivatives with satisfactory yields. One derivative, an amino-isocoumarin conjugated with a selenocyano functionality, was found to be nearly four times as active as the marketed drug abiraterone against T47D cancer cells.
A practical method to access amino-isocoumarins catalyzed by a Rh(III) complex through redox-neutral C-H/O-H annulation has been disclosed. The use of N-functionalized cyclic carbonates is crucial to facilitate the catalytic turnover, and a broad spectrum of amino-isocoumarin derivatives were prepared with satisfactory yields. Amino-isocoumarin estrone conjugated with a selenocyano functionality was identified to be nearly four times as active as the marketed drug abiraterone against T47D cancer cells.
