- Electrochemical Reductive Smiles Rearrangement for C-N Bond Formation
-
A conceptually new and synthetically valuable radical Smiles rearrangement reaction is reported under undivided electrolytic conditions. This protocol employs an entirely new strategy for the electrochemical radical Smiles rearrangement. Remarkably, an amidyl radical generated from the cleavage of the N-O bond under reductive electrolytic conditions plays a crucial role in this transformation. Various hydroxylamine derivatives bearing different substituents are suitable in this electrochemical transformation, furnishing the corresponding amides in up to 86% yield.

- Formal Aniline Synthesis from Phenols through Deoxygenative N-Centered Radical Substitution
-
Phenolic, lignin-derived substrates have emerged as desirable biorenewable chemical feedstocks for coupling reactions. A radical-mediated conversion of phenol derivatives to anilines is reported, using unfunctionalized hydroxamic acids as the N-centered radical source. The applicability of this triethyl phosphite mediated O-atom transfer approach, which tolerates a range of steric and electronic demands to naturally occurring phenols and lignin models, has been demonstrated in this work to access the corresponding aniline derivatives.

- Efficient Aryl Migration from an Aryl Ether to a Carboxylic Acid Group To Form an Ester by Visible-Light Photoredox Catalysis
-
We have developed a highly efficient aryl migration from an aryl ether to a carboxylic acid group through retro-Smiles rearrangement by visible-light photoredox catalysis at ambient temperature. Transition metals and a stoichiometric oxidant and base are avoided in the transformation. Inspired by the high efficiency of this transformation and the fundamental importance of C?O bond cleavage, we developed a novel approach to the C?O cleavage of a biaryl ether to form two phenolic compounds, as demonstrated by a one-pot, two-step gram-scale reaction under mild conditions. The aryl migration exhibits broad scope and can be applied to the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, such as guacetisal. Primary mechanistic studies indicate that the catalytic cycle occurs by a reductive quenching pathway.

- A photoredox-neutral Smiles rearrangement of 2-aryloxybenzoic acids
-
We report on the use of visible light photoredox catalysis for the radical Smiles rearrangement of 2-aryloxybenzoic acids to obtain aryl salicylates. The method is free of noble metals and operationally simple and the reaction can be run under mild batch or flow conditions. Being a redox neutral process, no stoichiometric oxidants or reductants are needed.

- Carboxyl radical-assisted 1,5-aryl migration through Smiles rearrangement
-
We report herein, a silver(i)-catalyzed Smiles rearrangement of 2-aryloxy- or 2-(arylthio)benzoic acids to provide aryl-2-hydroxybenzoate or aryl-2-mercaptobenzoate dimer, respectively, through 1,5-aryl migration from oxygen or sulfur to carboxylate oxygen. Mechanistically, the aryl ether moiety undergoes an intramolecular ipso attack by the carboxyl radical followed by a C-O or C-S bond cleavage. Aryl-2-mercaptobenzoates undergo oxidative dimerization through a thiol moiety in situ.

- Carboxylic acids and chloride conductance in skeletal muscle: Influence on the pharmacological activity induced by the chain substituents and the distance between the phenolic group and the carboxylic function in 4-chloro-phenoxy alkanoic acids
-
Some analogues of 2-(4-chloro-phenoxy)-propionic acid have been synthesized to evaluate the influence on the skeletal muscle chloride conductance of the distance between the phenolic and the carboxylic groups and/or the presence of substituents and chiral centers differently located on the carbon chain. Absolute configuration and/or chiroptical properties of the chiral compounds synthesized have been determined. These compounds, differently from fibrates, show a very low activity on chloride conductance and no remarkable correlation of this parameter with the absolute configuration.

- Gas phase generation and cyclisation reactions of some o-substituted phenyl radicals
-
Flash vacuum pyrolysis of the allyl esters 2 (X=O, S, CH2, CO) at 900°C (10-2 Torr) gives dibenzofurans, dibenzothiophenes, fluorenes, and fluorenones respectively as the major products. The mechanism involves the phenyl radical intermediates 1 which equilibrate by intramolecular hydrogen transfer via six-membered transition states, prior to cyclisation.
