Copper-Catalyzed Cyanoalkylative Aziridination of N-Sulfonyl Allylamines

Jieping Zhu, Qian Wang, Minh Tu Ha, Weisi Guo

Reaction of N-arylsulfonyl allylamines with alkyl nitriles in the presence of di-tert-butyl peroxide (DTBP) and a catalytic amount of copper salt afforded homologated aziridines in 43-86% yield. A sequence involving addition of the in situ generated cyanom ...

Dual Photoredox and Copper Catalysis: Enantioselective 1,2-Amidocyanation of 1,3-Dienes

Jieping Zhu, Qian Wang, Weisi Guo, Dan Forster

Dual photoredox−transition-metal catalysis has emerged as a powerful tool for the development of chemical transformations. However, its application in the selective difunctionalization of 1,3-dienes remains essentially unexploited. By the synergistic actio ...

Photoredox Catalytic Three-Component Amidoazidation of 1,3-Dienes

Jieping Zhu, Qian Wang, Weisi Guo, Dan Forster

In spite of the obvious synthetic potential of functionalized allylic azides, only limited synthetic routes have been developed. We report herein a three-component 1,2-amidoazidation of 1,3-dienes. In the presence of fac-Ir(ppy)(3) under blue LED irradiati ...

Visible light photoredox-catalysed remote C-H functionalisation enabled by 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer (1,5-HAT)

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Weisi Guo

The generation of heteroatom-centred radicals (X), followed by intramolecular 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer (1,5-HAT) and the functionalisation of the translocated carbon-centred radicals, is the basic mechanism of the classic Hofmann-Loffler-Freytag (HLF) re ...

Selective 1,2-Aminoisothiocyanation of 1,3-Dienes Under Visible-Light Photoredox Catalysis

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Weisi Guo

Selective three-component 1,2-diamination of 1,3-dienes with concurrent introduction of two orthogonally protected amino groups remains unknown despite its significant synthetic potential. We report herein that reaction of conjugated dienes with N-aminopyr ...
