Synthesis of Spirodienones by Intramolecular Ipso-Cyclization of <i>N</i>-Methoxy-(4-halogenophenyl)amides Using [Hydroxy(tosyloxy)iodo]benzene in Trifluoroethanol
Spirodienones bearing the 1-azaspiro[4.5]decane ring system have been synthesized from N-methoxy-(4-halogenophenyl)amides by the intramolecular ipso attack of a nitrenium ion generated with [hydroxy(tosyloxy)iodo]benzene in trifluoroethanol.
A new synergistic multicatalytic activation mode of eosinY has been discovered by exploiting the redox potential of its ground state and excited state. This catalytic strategy proves to be an enabling tool for visible‐light‐driven sequentialbenzylicC−Hamination and oxidation of o‐benzyl‐N‐methoxyl‐benzamides when using Selectfluor as a hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) reagent and O2 as oxidant. Efficient
