Photoinduced homolytic C–H activation in N-(4-homoadamantyl)phthalimide
نویسندگان
چکیده
N-(4-homoadamantyl)phthalimide (5) on excitation and population of the triplet excited state underwent intramolecular H-abstractions and gave products 6 and 7. The major product, exo-alcohol 6 was a result of the regioselective δ H-abstraction and the stereoselective cyclization of the 1,5-biradical. Minor products 7 were formed by photoinduced γ H-abstractions, followed by ring closure to azetidinols and ring enlargement to azepinediones. The observed selectivity to exo-alcohol 6 was explained by the conformation of 5 and the best orientation and the availability of the δ-H for the abstraction.

A Different Behaviour of the Phthalimide Ion in Srn1 Reactions
The phthalimide anion reacts by the SRN1 mechanism under photostimulation with different substrates. Whilst with 1-iodonaphthalene only reduction of the naphthyl radical is observed, with 1-iodoadamantane coupling at the carbon instead of at the nitrogen takes place. Introduction The mechanism of Radical Nucleophilic Substitution (SRN1) is a chain process with radicals and radical anions as int...
متن کاملPhotoinduced decarboxylation of 3-(N-phthalimido)adamantane-1-carboxylic acid and radical addition to electron deficient alkenes.
Direct and sensitized excitation of 3-(N-phthalimido)adamantane-1-carboxylic acid (1) leads to the population of the triplet state that, in the presence of a base, decarboxylates, giving N-(1-adamantyl)phthalimide (2) cleanly and efficiently (Φ = 0.11). The radical initially formed by decarboxylation adds regiospecifically to electron deficient alkenes, whereas radical addition was not observed...

The title compound, C(18)H(17)NO(4), was obtained accidentally through acid-catalysed aromatization of a phthalimide-substituted 2-(1-hy-droxy-eth-yl)cyclo-hex-2-enone. It exhibits an intra-molecular O-H⋯O(c) (c = carbonyl) hydrogen bond and forms a three-dimensional network structure via π-π stacking inter-actions between adjacent benzene rings (phthalimide-to-phenyl-ene and phthalimide-to-pht...

A novel palladium-catalyzed intermolecular aminopalladation/C-H activation method for selectively synthesizing (E)-(2-oxindolin-3-ylidene)phthalimides has been developed. In the presence of Pd(OAc)2 and PhI(OAc)2, alkynes were difunctionalized with a phthalimide and an arene sp2 C-H bond to selectively synthesize (E)-(2-oxoindolin-3-ylidene)phthalimides, which products are of great potential ph...

THE TITLE COMPOUND [SYSTEMATIC NAME: 2-(4-meth-oxy-benz-yl)-isoindoline-1,3-dione], C(16)H(13)NO(3), represents a triclinic polymorph of the previously reported monoclinic form [Warzecha et al. (2006 ▶). Acta Cryst. E62, o5450-o5452]. The reaction of potassium phthalimide and 4-meth-oxy-benzyl chloride in dimethyl-formamide gave platelet-shaped crystals; these were harvested and then needle-sha...
