Abstract

Co(III)-catalysed site-selective C8-allylation and vinylation of isoquinolones with allyl acetate and vinyl acetates has been accomplished. The oxo group of isoquinolone has been utilised as an inherent directing group. Based on preliminary mechanistic studies, a plausible mechanism for the developed reaction has also been delineated. Broad substrate scope with good to excellent yields and post-synthetic transformations of allylated and vinylated isoquinolines highlight the importance of the reaction.
