Radical Arylalkoxycarbonylation of 2-Isocyanobiphenyl with Carbazates: Dual C–C Bond Formation toward Phenanthridine-6-carboxylates
摘要:
A sequential oxidative radical alkoxycarbonylation and aromatization of 2-isocyanobiphenyl with carbazates was developed to furnish phenanthridine-6-carboxylates. Various functional groups such as methoxy, chloro, fluoro, trifluoromethoxy, and trifluoromethyl groups were tolerated well under the reaction conditions. The sequential radical addition-cyclization strategy represents a practical route to access phenanthridine-6-carboxylates.

Mildly basic aqueous conditions facilitated the tert-butyl peroxybenzoate (TBPB) mediated dehydrogenative addition of a range of ethers, including acetals, to diverse substituted 2-isocyanobiaryls. Mechanistic studies suggest that this radical cascade is an example of base promoted homolytic aromatic substitution (BHAS).

A simple and efficient radical coupling of 2-isocyanobiphenyl with ethers was developed, providing a variety of 6-alkylated phenanthridines. Both cyclic and acyclic ethers are suitable substrates for this transformation, which comprised the functionalization of two C-H bonds: the sp3 C-H of ether and sp2 C-H of phenyl group. The kinetic isotope effect (KIE) revealed that the cleavage of sp3 C-H bond would be involved in the rate-determining step.
A metal-free radical oxidative decarboxylation/cyclization of acyl peroxides and 2-isocyanobiphenyls was achieved, leading to 6-aryl phenanthridines as well as 6-alkyl phenanthridines in moderate to good yields. The procedure featured simple conditions and was metal-free and base free. It represents a practical approach to access 6-aryl/alkyl phenanthridines.
