A New Approach to Isoindolinones: Rhodium(III)-Catalyzed [3+2] Annulation Reactions of N-Methoxybenzamides with Bis(tosylamido)methane was written by Fang, Zhang;Shu, Sai;Zhou, Guanyu;Deng, Zefeng;Huang, Pengcheng;Li, Bao;Zhao, Yingsheng. And the article was included in European Journal of Organic Chemistry in 2022.Safety of 2-Phenylisoindolin-1-one This article mentions the following:
A new approach to the synthesis of isoindolinones I (R = H, Me, OMe, etc.; R1 = Me, OPh, Cl, etc.; R2 = Cl, Me, (cyclopropylmethyl)oxidanyl, etc.; R3 = H, Cl; R4 = H, 2-Me, 4-Br, etc.) via direct coupling of N-methoxybenzamides 2R-3R1-4R2-5R3C6HC(O)NHOMe and bis(tosylamido)methane (R4NH)2CH2 with rhodium(III) as catalyst has been developed. The reaction is performed under mild conditions without oxidant, and is compatible with various functional groups. Compared with the previously reported methods for constructing isoindolinone skeletons, this method involves a novel [3+2] cyclization, and affords a wide variety of isoindolinones I in moderate to excellent yields. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 2-Phenylisoindolin-1-one (cas: 5388-42-1Safety of 2-Phenylisoindolin-1-one).
2-Phenylisoindolin-1-one (cas: 5388-42-1) belongs to indole derivatives. In addition to tryptophan, indigo, and indoleacetic acid, numerous compounds obtainable from plant or animal sources contain the indole molecular structure. It is used in perfumery and in making tryptophan, an essential amino acid, and indoleacetic acid (heteroauxin), a hormone that promotes the development of roots in plant cuttings.Safety of 2-Phenylisoindolin-1-one
