Abstract

We report the discovery of a convenient and efficient method for the synthesis of highly substituted 1,6-naphthyridines. A tandem nitrile hydration/cyclization procedure was developed to access 1,6-naphthyridine-5,7-diones under mild conditions. Subsequently, we have found that ditriflation of these intermediates provides 1,6-naphthyridine-5,7-ditriflates which are bench-stable but highly reactive intermediates that can be engaged in one-pot difunctionalization reactions leading to diverse drug-like products in rapid fashion.
