ABSTRACT
An atom-economical procedure for the synthesis of pyranoindolones fused with 7- or 8-membered rings has been developed. This process is realized through sequential Cs2CO3-promoted C–C σ-bond cleavage cyclic ketoesters and a ZnI2-mediated selective C–H/O–H coupling reaction. Two σ-bonds are cleaved one sp2 C–H bonds functionalized during reaction process. Easily accessible starting materials broad substrate scope make this protocol attractive in synthetic organic chemistry.
