Compound 1 (237 mg, 1 mmol), amine (1.2 mmol), and
Cu(OAc)2$H2O (40 mg, 0.2 mmol) were solubilized by gently
warming glacial acetic acid (5 mL) at 80e100 ꢀC for about 3e5 h,
monitored by TLC. After 1 was completely reacted, all the volatiles
were removed under reduced pressure. The resulting crude product
was applied to a flash column of silica gel, which was eluted with
DCM or other solvents as indicated in the description of each
product, then recrystallized in EtOH/H2O (v/v: 1/2) or THF/H2O (v/
v: 1/2) to give the ring-fused products (2aeg).
