Abstract
An effective Ag(I)-mediated annulation of 2-(2-enynyl)pyridines and propargyl amines was developed, unexpectedly affording a broad range of functionalized 1-(2H-pyrrol-3-yl)indolizines in moderate to excellent yields. The developed method is characterized by operational simplicity, ready availability of starting materials, high regioselectivity, and broad substrate scope under mild reaction conditions. The Ag(I)-promoted cyclization of 2-(2-enynyl)pyridines and propargyl amines possibly results in the formation of the spiroindolizine, the ring-opening rearrangement of which may give the 1-(2H-pyrrol-3-yl)indolizine. Furthermore, a gram-scale reaction and synthetic transformations are also studied.
