The development of a rhodiumcatalyst for endo- and enantioselective hydroacylation of ortho-allylbenzaldehydes is reported. A catalyst generated in situ from [Rh(COD)Cl]2, (R)-DTBM-SEGPHOS, and NaBARF promotes the desired hydroacylation reactions and minimizes the formation of byproducts from competitive alkene isomerization and ene/dehydration pathways. These rhodium-catalyzed processes generate
Visible-light induced generation of bifunctional nitrogen-centered radicals: a concise synthetic strategy to construct bicyclo[3.2.1] octane and azepane cores
A photocatalytic tandem cyclization of o-alkenylbenzaldehydes using pyridinium salts as the amination reagent is described. A variety of valuable seven-membered nitrogenous heterocyclic skeletons are prepared in modest to excellent yields in concise one-step. This transformation features mild reaction conditions and exceptional functional group tolerance. In addition, combining control experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations on the mechanism can explain the reaction selectivity.
