A rhodium(III)-catalyzed cycloaddition of N-tert-butoxycarbonylhydrazones with internal alkynes was developed. The reaction features a regioselective α-imino alkyl C(sp3)?H bond functionalization resulting in selective formation of highly functionalized NH-free pyrroles. Our studies showed that utilizing the N-tert-butoxycarbonyl (N-Boc) as the oxidizing directing group is critical for achieving the observed pyrrole formation versus the isoquinoline formation. To account for the pyrrole formation, we hypothesized that a prior tautomerization of the N-Boc-hydrazones to enamines should occur, followed by regioselective C(sp2)–H cleavage to form a putative five-membered rhodacycle. Subsequent coupling of the rhodacycle with the alkynes would afford the pyrrole products. (Figure presented.).

A rhodium-catalyzed sequential oxidative C-H annulation reaction between ketazines and internal alkynes has been developed via C-H and N-N bond activation with air as an external oxidant, which led to an efficient approach toward isoquinolines with high atom efficiency at rt. Utilizing the distinctive reactivity of this catalysis, both N-atoms of the azines could be efficiently incorporated to the desired isoquinolines under very robust and mild reaction conditions.
