Benzylic C-H Azidation Using the Zhdankin Reagent and a Copper Photoredox Catalyst.
نویسندگان
چکیده
An azidation method for C-N bond formation at benzylic C-H positions is described using copper-catalyzed visible light photochemistry and the Zhdankin azidoiodinane reagent. The method is applicable to a wide range of substrates bearing different functional groups and having a primary, secondary, or tertiary benzylic position, and is thought to proceed through a radical chain reaction.

A general strategy for organocatalytic activation of C-H bonds via photoredox catalysis: direct arylation of benzylic ethers.
Direct C-H functionalization and arylation of benzyl ethers has been accomplished via photoredox organocatalysis. The productive merger of a thiol catalyst and a commercially available iridium photoredox catalyst in the presence of household light directly affords benzylic arylation products in good to excellent yield. The utility of this methodology is further demonstrated in direct arylation ...
متن کاملHIGHLIGHT Cyclic Hypervalent Iodine Reagents and Iron Catalysis: the Winning Team for Late-Stage C-H Azidation
In the past decades azides have received increasing attention due to their exceptional reactivity and versatility in organic chemistry. Their use as non-basic precursors of amines or their easy conversion to nitrene intermediates for further C-N bond transformations made them key building blocks in chemistry, biology and material science. In spite of their hailed synthetic utility, their instal...
متن کاملCooperative Light‐Activated Iodine and Photoredox Catalysis for the Amination of Csp3 −H Bonds
An unprecedented method that makes use of the cooperative interplay between molecular iodine and photoredox catalysis has been developed for dual light-activated intramolecular benzylic C-H amination. Iodine serves as the catalyst for the formation of a new C-N bond by activating a remote Csp3 -H bond (1,5-HAT process) under visible-light irradiation while the organic photoredox catalyst TPT ef...
متن کاملActivation of C–H Bonds via the Merger of Photoredox and Organocatalysis: A Coupling of Benzylic Ethers with Schiff Bases
The photoredox-mediated coupling of benzylic ethers with Schiff bases has been accomplished. Direct benzylic C-H activation by a combination of a thiol catalyst with an iridium photocatalyst and subsequent radical-radical coupling with secondary aldimines affords a variety of β-amino ether products in good to excellent yields. Mechanistic studies suggest that a reductive quenching pathway of th...
متن کاملManganese-catalyzed late-stage aliphatic C-H azidation.
We report a manganese-catalyzed aliphatic C-H azidation reaction that can efficiently convert secondary, tertiary, and benzylic C-H bonds to the corresponding azides. The method utilizes aqueous sodium azide solution as the azide source and can be performed under air. Besides its operational simplicity, the potential of this method for late-stage functionalization has been demonstrated by succe...
