Axially chiral atropisomeric compounds are widely applied in asym. catalysis and medicinal chem., and efficient methods for their synthesis are in high demand. This applies in particular to atropisomers derived from five-membered aromatic rings because their lower barrier for rotation among the biaryl axis limits their asym. synthesis. We report here an enantioselective C-H functionalization method using our chiral RhJasCp complex for the synthesis of the biaryl atropisomer types that can be accessed from three different five-membered-ring heterocycles. In addition to this study using Methyl 4-fluorobenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylate, there are many other studies that have used Methyl 4-fluorobenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylate(cas: 220180-55-2Reference of Methyl 4-fluorobenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylate) was used in this study.
Methyl 4-fluorobenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylate(cas: 220180-55-2) belongs to benzothiophene.Benzothiophene is a fused ring compound of thiophene ring and benzene ring, which is an important class of heterocycles with advantageous structures. It has been used as a raw material for the synthesis of biologically active structures and is found in pharmaceuticals such as selective estrogen receptor modulators, leukotriene synthesis inhibitors and antifungals, as well as in many natural products.
