General description

Rapid palladium-catalyzed carbonylative cyclization reactions of 2-iodophenol with various alkyne under microwave irradiation using Mo(CO)6 as the CO source has been investigated.

Application

2-Iodophenol was used in the synthesis of:
  • aryl 2-benzofuranyl and aryl 2-indolyl carbinols of high enantiomeric purity
  • 3,3-disubstituted-2,3-dihydrobenzofurans

trans-3,4-Dihydro-2H-1,4-benzoxazine moieties can be synthesized by domino aziridine ring opening with o-iodophenols followed by the copper-catalyzed Goldberg coupling cyclization (intramolecular C(aryl)-N(amide) bond formation) with good to excellent yields.

Salicylate hydroxylase [EC 1.14.13.1] from Pseudomonas putida catalyzes the hydroxylation of salicylate, and also o-aminophenol, o-nitrophenol, and o-halogenophenols, to catechol. The reactions with these o-substituted phenols comprise oxygenative deamination, denitration, and dehalogenation, respectively. The reaction stoichiometry, as to NADH oxidized
