  • visible light induced alkoxyl radical generation enables selective c sp3 c sp3 bond cleavage and functionalizations
    Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2016
    Co-Authors: Fuyuan Zhang, Hanchu Huang, Yiyun Chen
    Abstract:

    The alkoxyl radical is an important reactive intermediate in mechanistic studies and organic synthesis; however, its current generation from alcohol oxidation heavily relies on transition metal activation under strong oxidative conditions. Here we report the first visible-light-induced alcohol oxidation to generate alkoxyl radicals by cyclic iodine(III) reagent catalysis under mild reaction conditions. The β-fragmentation of alkoxyl radicals enables selective C(sp3)–C(sp3) bond cleavage and alkynylation/Alkenylation reactions with various strained cycloalkanols, and for the first time with linear alcohols.

  • Visible-Light-Induced Alkoxyl Radical Generation Enables Selective C(sp3)–C(sp3) Bond Cleavage and Functionalizations

    Abstract:

    The alkoxyl radical is an important reactive intermediate in mechanistic studies and organic synthesis; however, its current generation from alcohol oxidation heavily relies on transition metal activation under strong oxidative conditions. Here we report the first visible-light-induced alcohol oxidation to generate alkoxyl radicals by cyclic iodine­(III) reagent catalysis under mild reaction conditions. The β-fragmentation of alkoxyl radicals enables selective C­(sp3)–C­(sp3) bond cleavage and alkynylation/Alkenylation reactions with various strained cyclo­alkanols, and for the first time with linear alcohols

  • hypervalent iodine reagents enable chemoselective deboronative decarboxylative Alkenylation by photoredox catalysis
    Angewandte Chemie, 2015
    Co-Authors: Hanchu Huang, Kunfang Jia, Yiyun Chen
    Abstract:

    Chemoselective C(sp(3))-C(sp(2)) coupling reactions under mild reaction conditions are useful for synthesizing alkyl-substituted alkenes having sensitive functional groups. Reported here is a visible-light-induced chemoselective Alkenylation through a deboronation/decarboxylation sequence under neutral aqueous reaction conditions at room temperature. This reaction represents the first hypervalent-iodine-enabled radical decarboxylative Alkenylation reaction, and a novel benziodoxole-vinyl carboxylic acid reaction intermediate was isolated. This C(sp(3))-C(sp(2)) coupling reaction leads to aryl-and acyl-substituted alkenes containing various sensitive functional groups. The excellent chemoselectivity, stable reactants, and neutral aqueous reaction conditions of the reaction suggest future biomolecule applications.
