Michael-type addition of hydroxide to alkynylselenonium salt: practical use as a ketoselenonium ylide precursor
A novelsyntheticmethod of ketodiphenylselenonium ylide from alkynylselenonium salt is described. A reaction of alkynylselenonium salt, hydroxide ion, and aldehyde in the presence of silver triflate and triethylamine gave oxiranylketones just as a trans-isomer in moderate to good yields, whereas benzoyl aziridine derivatives were obtained from the reaction with sodium p-toluenesulfonamide instead
It's a trap! Both epoxides and aziridines substituted by an aryl ketone can be reduced efficiently using visible‐light photoredox catalysts. The radicals generated were trapped by allyl sulfones, and formed α‐branched β‐hydroxy or amino derivatives with high diastereocontrol (see scheme; dtbbpy=4,4′‐di‐tert‐butyl‐2,2′‐bipyridine, ppy=2‐phenylpyridine).
