Abstract
The aldehyde group is one of the most versatile intermediates in synthetic chemistry, and the introduction of an aldehyde group into heteroarenes is important for the transformation of molecular structure. Herein, we achieved the direct formylation of benzothiazo/les and isoquinolines. The reaction features a novel iron-catalyzed Minisci-type oxidative coupling process using commercially available 1,3-dioxolane as a formylated reagent followed by acetal hydrolysis without a separation process. The reaction can be performed under exceedingly mild reaction conditions and exhibits broad functional group tolerance.
