Copper-catalyzed cascade annulation of γ,δ-unsaturated α-bromocarbonyls with biaryl or (Z)-arylvinylacetylenes is presented, giving an expeditious access to dibenzocycloheptanes and related compounds in moderate to high yields. It provides a novel method for the one-pot synthesis of cycloheptane and cycloheptene-fused polycyclic scaffolds featuring a rare 7-endo-trig radical cyclization.

4-(2-Ethynylphenyl)pyridine (10), 3-(2-ethynylphenyl)pyridine (11), 2-(2-trimethylsilylethynylphenyl)pyridine (26), and 3-ethynyl-2-phenylpyridine (13) were prepared from readily available pyridine precursors by standard coupling reactions. Pyrolysis of 10 at 810 °C/0.5 Torr provided benzo[f]isoquinoline (45) and the benzopentalene dimer 47. Pyrolysis of 11 (820 °C/0.5 Torr) afforded benzo[f]quinoline (50), benzo[h]i-soquinoline (52), and a mixture of isomers of 47. Pyrolysis of 13 (820 °C/0.3 Torr) provided benzo[h]quinoline (56) and the novel azulene derivative azuleno[1,2-b]pyridine (58). When 26 was desilylated by treatment with TBAF in THF/water, the unusual "dimerization" product 37 was produced; its structure was confirmed by X-ray structural analysis. The mechanisms of these transformations are discussed. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2002.
