Abstract:
The current invention provides a novel electrochemical synthetic method for producing a novel dihydrobenzo[b,e] pyrroloazepines hybrides containing maleimide and  tetrahydroquinoline heterocycles using specially designed olefin known as 2-amino substituted benzylidene derivatives as starting material. Seven-membered N- containing heterocycles, in particular 1-benzazepines are the integral structure of many bioactive compounds such as antidepressant drugs, anti-convulsants, anti-HIV  etc. This present method provides an oxidant-free and metal-free process for the synthesis of a new class of Dihydrobenzo[b,e] pyrroloazepines hybrid containing  maleimide/succinamide, benzoazepine and tetrahydroisoquinoline as well as other cyclic/acyclic amines via electrochemical C(sp3)-H functionalizing followed by  cascade cyclization using easily available reagents. unique, efficient, eco-friendly, cost-effective, and safe technology has been developed to expedite the novel  synthetic process. This method comprises the simple electrochemical synthesis of dihydrobenzo[b,e] pyrroloazepines derivatives using a suitable electrode and  electrolyte under ambient temperature. The synthesis employs an environmentally friendly electrochemical method that doesn't require transition metals and external  oxidants. This method is highly effective and scalable, contributing to both atom and step economy in the process. As a result, this methodology holds substantial  significance. It presents a novel avenue for synthesizing new scaffolds that are useful as potential bioactive heterocyclic scaffolds photophysically relevant, including  and chemo sensors to detect picric acid and other nitro compounds.
