Cyclization–endoperoxidation cascade reactions of dienes mediated by a pyrylium photoredox catalyst
نویسندگان
چکیده
Triarylpyrylium salts were employed as single electron photooxidants to catalyze a cyclization-endoperoxidation cascade of dienes. The transformation is presumed to proceed via the intermediacy of diene cation radicals. The nature of the diene component was investigated in this context to determine the structural requirements necessary for successful reactivity. Several unique endoperoxide structures were synthesized in yields up to 79%.

Tin-free radical cyclization reactions initiated by visible light photoredox catalysis.
Herein, we report an advancement in the application of visible light photoredox catalysts in a classic free radical mediated reaction, cyclization onto unactivated pi-systems. The reactive radical intermediate is generated by the single electron reduction of an activated C-Br bond by an electron-rich redox catalyst afforded by a visible light induced catalytic cycle.

A hypervalent iodine(iii) reagent catalyzed carbonylarylation of acrylamides with α-oxocarboxylic acids driven by visible-light without a photoredox catalyst has been developed. The reactions generate the corresponding products in good yields at room temperature. Experiments indicate that a blue LED (450-455 nm) is the most effective energy for the cleavage of the oxygen-iodine bond to initiate...

Shown herein is that polyfunctionalized nitrogen heterocycles can be easily prepared by a visible-light-mediated radical cascade process. This divergent strategy features the oxidative generation of iminyl radicals and subsequent cyclization/radical trapping, which allows the effective construction of highly functionalized heterocycles. The reactions proceed efficiently at room temperature, uti...

Photochemical reactions employing TiO2 and carboxylic acids under dry anaerobic conditions led to several types of C-C bond-forming processes with electron-deficient alkenes. The efficiency of alkylation varied appreciably with substituents in the carboxylic acids. The reactions of aryloxyacetic acids with maleimides resulted in a cascade process in which a pyrrolochromene derivative accompanie...
متن کاملIntramolecular Cyclization Strategies Toward the Synthesis of Zoanthamine Alkaloids.
Stabilized 2-amino-1,3-dienes can participate in intramolecular Diels-Alder (IMDA) reactions with pendant dienophiles. We found that these dienes can be readily prepared via standard palladium-mediated coupling reactions and have comparable reactivity to 2-oxodienes. Application of these substrates to the synthesis of tetracyclic model systems representing the ABCE motif of the zoanthamines is ...
