Abstract

An unprecedented p-TsOH and MsOH-catalyzed construction of valuable isoindolo/pyrido/pyrrolo-quinolinediones and isoindolo-indolones is demonstrated through annulation reactions of cyclic anhydrides or o-formylbenzoates with o-alkynylanilines. The metal-free Bro̷nsted acid-mediated new [5+1] and [4+1] fused-cyclization is an operationally simple, highly regioselective, atom economical, high yielding, sustainable, and catalytically efficient approach.
