A metal-free synthesis of oxindoles by a radical addition-cyclization onto N-arylacrylamides with xanthates
摘要:
A convenient, high yielding synthesis of oxindoles by metal-free di-functionalization of alkenes with xanthates has been developed. This transformation involves a radical addition/cyclization process. Various arylalkylation products including alkyl ester-, benzyl-, cyano-, ketone-, amine-, and amide-substituted oxindoles were prepared in good to excellent yields. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd.

Mechanistic study of 7-endo selective radical cyclization of the aryl radical
摘要:
Mechanistic studies on the novel 7-endo selective radical cyclization were carried out. The reaction afforded three products, 7-endo product, 6-exo product, and reduced product. The distribution of these products was estimated by GC analyses. The 7-endo/6-exo selectivity was almost constant against variation in the concentration of Bu3SnH, while the reduction/cyclization ratio was sensitive to the concentration of Bu3SnH. The reduction/cyclization ratio was mainly affected by the rotational isomeric ratio of the cyclization precursor. Kinetic analyses indicated that the cyclization process should be irreversible, and the rate constant of 7-endo/6-exo radical cyclization was estimated to be about 3.3 x 10(8) s (1) at 80 degrees C.
