最近,水性胶束介质中的光催化为激活强碳卤键开辟了广阔的途径。然而,到目前为止,它主要探索了强烈的还原条件,将可用的化学空间限制为自由基或阴离子反应性。在这里,我们展示了一种可控的光催化策略,该策略通过自由基或阳离子途径引导氯化苯甲酰胺的反应,从而实现化学发散的 C-H 芳基化或N-脱烷基化。该催化系统在温和的条件下运行,亚甲基蓝作为光催化剂,蓝色 LED 作为光源。介绍了决定底物反应性、选择性和初步机理研究的因素。
We report a uniquely high-yielding, general, and practical ortho bromination and iodination reaction of different classes of aromatic compounds. This reaction occurs by Rh(III)-catalyzed C-H bond activation methodology and is therefore the first example of the application of this cationic catalyst for C-Br and C-I bond formation.
