6.1 Reaction Types Most Frequently Used in Heterocyclic Ring Synthesis By far the most frequently used process is the addition of a nucleophile to a carbonyl carbon (or the more reactive carbon of an O - protonated carbonyl). When the reaction leads to C–C bond formation, then the nucleophile is the β - carbon of an enol or an enolate anion, or of an enamine.

Strategy a: Involving Only C-Heteroatom Bond Formation 6-membered rings

For six-membered rings, the 1,5-dicarbonyl precursor has to contain a C-C double bond in order to lead directly to the aromatic system.

The use of an otherwise saturated 1,5 - dicarbonyl compound does not lead directly to an aromatic pyridine, though it is easy to dehydrogenate the dihydro - heterocycle.

Where a carbonyl component at the oxidation level of an acid is used then the resultant product carries an oxygen substituent at that carbon.

Similarly, if a nitrile group is used instead of a carbonyl group, as an electrophilic centre, then the resulting heterocycle carries an amino group at that carbon

Amongst often used 1,3-difunctionalised compounds are the doubly electrophilic 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds and α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds (C=C-C=O), doubly nucleophilic HX-C-YH (amidines and ureas are examples), and α-amino- or α-hydroxycarbonyl compounds (HX-C-C=O), which have an electrophilic and a nucleophilic centre.

An equally plausible sequence, shown below, starts with the nucleophilic addition of the enolic hydroxyl of the diketone to protonated acetophenone.

Alkene dipolarophiles, with a group that can be eliminated following cycloaddition, for example enamines as the dipolarophile.

Many mesoionic substances can act as 1,3 - dipoles, and, after elimination of a small molecule (carbon dioxide in the example shown ) produce aromatic heterocycles.

4.3 Nitrenes in Heterocyclic Ring Synthesis

Nitrene insertion

A nitrene is a monovalent, six - electron, neutral nitrogen, most often generated by thermolysis or photolysis of an azide or by deoxygenation of a nitro group.

a) Apart from studies of spectroscopic and other physical properties, the unstable and reactive ortho-quinodimethanes are not isolated but are generated in the presence of the trapping reactant. b) Their adducts with sulfur dioxide can be a convenient way in which to store ortho-quinodimethanes generated by other means.

The extrusion of sulfur dioxide from heterocyclic sulfones is probably the most generally used method for the generation of ortho-quinodimethanes. Such sulfones are generally stable and easy to synthesise, by various routes. In addition, the acidity of the protons adjacent to the sulfone unit allows for base-promoted introduction of substituents, before thermolytic extrusion and the Diels-Alder step.

The generation then trapping of ortho-quinodimethanes, in both intermolecular and intramolecular reactions, has become an important route for the construction of polycyclic heterocyclic compounds. From the point of view of ring construction, the most important trapping reactions are those in which the ortho-quinodimethane acts as a diene in Diels-Alder cycloadditions, thereby regaining a fully aromatic ring, as illustrated below.

The use of cyclobuteno-heterocycles is of course dependent on a convenient synthesis (for an example, see section 11.14.2.3), but when available, they are excellent precursors, only rather moderate heating being required for ring opening, as shown by the example below, in which the initial Diels-Alder adduct is aromatised by reaction with excess quinone.
