Résumé
Benzodiazepinones are an important family of heterocycles with very attractive pharmacological properties and peptidomimetic abilities. We report herein a rapid and efficient two-step synthesis of polysubstituted 1,4-benzodiazepin-3-ones and 1,5-benzodiazocin-4-ones using a multicomponent condensation/cyclization strategy. The approach uses an Ugi four-component reaction to condense readily available Nα-Fmoc-amino acids, amines and isocyanides with a 2-fluorobenzaldehyde derivative followed by a one-pot Fmoc-group removal, intramolecular aromatic nucleophilic substitution for ring closure and side chain deprotection. The described method gives access to benzo-fused 7- and 8-membered rings bearing a wide variety of functionalized substituents and was applied to efficiently prepare tri- and tetrasubstituted 1,4-benzodiazepin-3-ones and 1,5-benzodiazocin-4-ones in high yields in two straightforward steps.
