One-pot synthesis of substituted isoindolin-1-ones via lithiation and substitution of N′-benzyl-N,N-dimethylureas

Abstract

Lithiation of various N′-benzyl-N,N-dimethylureas with t-BuLi (3.3 mole equivalents) in anhydrous THF at 0 °C followed by reactions with various electrophiles afforded the corresponding 3-substituted isoindolin-1-ones in high yields.
