Regioselective Halogenations and Subsequent Suzuki-Miyaura Coupling onto Bicyclic 2-Pyridones

• A selective synthesis of 6-bromo-8-iodo dihydro thiazolo ring-fused 2-pyridones is described. These halogenated 2-pyridones are selectively arylated by sequential Suzuki-Miyaura couplings. This approach can advantageously be used to synthesize focused libraries of substituted ring-fused 2-pyridones, a class of compounds with novel antibacterial properties.
