Visible-Light-Promoted and One-Pot Synthesis of Phenanthridines and Quinolines from Aldehydes and O-Acyl Hydroxylamine
摘要:
A one-pot synthesis of phenanthridines and quinolines from commercially available or easily prepared aldehydes has been reported. O-(4-Cyanobenzoyl)hydroxylamine was utilized as the nitrogen source to generate O-acyl oximes in situ with aldehydes catalyzed by Bronsted acid. O-Acyl oximes were then subjected to visible light photoredox catalyzed cyclization via iminyl radicals to furnish aza-arenes. A variety of phenanthridines and quinolines have been prepared assisted by Bronsted acid and photocatalyst under visible light at room temperature with satisfactory yields.
