Photochemical Functionalization of Heterocycles with EBX Reagents: C-H Alkynylation versus Deconstructive Ring Cleavage

Jérôme Waser, Marion Marie-Agnès Garreau

The development of novel methodologies for the functionalization of saturated heterocycles is highly desirable. Herein, we report a cheap and efficient photochemical method for the C-H functionalization of saturated O-heterocycles, as well as the deconstru ...

Azide Radical Initiated Ring Opening of Cyclopropenes Leading to Alkenyl Nitriles and Polycyclic Aromatic Compounds

Jérôme Waser, Bastian Antoine Rodolphe Claude Muriel

We report herein a radical‐mediated amination of cyclopropenes. The transformation proceeds through a cleavage of the three‐membered ring after the addition of an azide radical on the strained double bond and leads to tetrasubstituted alkenyl nitrile deriv ...

Vinylbenziodoxol(on)es: Synthetic Methods and Applications

Jérôme Waser, Guillaume Dominique Pisella, Nina Declas

Cyclic hypervalent iodine reagents are now frequently used in synthetic organic chemistry, either as oxidants or group-transfer reagents. Vinylbenziodoxol(on)es (VBXs) bearing alkene substituents have been less investigated than the corresponding trifluoro ...
