Synthesis of Highly Substituted Pyridines via [4 + 2] Cycloadditions of Vinylallenes and Sulfonyl Cyanides.

A convergent strategy for the synthesis of multisubstituted pyridines is described. Vinylallenes combine with commercially available arylsulfonyl cyanides in Diels-Alder cycloadditions to generate isopyridine cycloadducts that are converted to pyridines upon further heating or addition of base. The 2-sulfonylpyridine products undergo nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions with oxygen and carbon nucleophiles to provide access to a variety of highly substituted pyridines.
