- Photocatalytic Hydroaminoalkylation of Styrenes with Unprotected Primary Alkylamines
-
Catalytic, intermolecular hydroaminoalkylation (HAA) of styrenes provides a powerful disconnection for pharmacologically relevant γ-arylamines, but current methods cannot utilize unprotected primary alkylamines as feedstocks. Metal-catalyzed HAA protocols are also highly sensitive to α-substitution on the amine partner, and no catalytic solutions exist for α-tertiary γ-arylamine synthesis via this approach. We report a solution to these problems using organophotoredox catalysis, enabling a direct, modular, and sustainable preparation of α-(di)substituted γ-arylamines, including challenging electron-neutral and moderately electron-rich aryl groups. A broad range of functionalities are tolerated, and the reactions can be run on multigram scale in continuous flow. The method is applied to a concise, protecting-group-free synthesis of the blockbuster drug Fingolimod, as well as a phosphonate mimic of itsin vivoactive form (by iterative α-C-H functionalization of ethanolamine). The reaction can also be sequenced with an intramolecularN-arylation to provide a general and modular access to valuable (spirocyclic) 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthyridines. Mechanistic and kinetic studies support an irreversible hydrogen atom transfer activation of the alkylamine by the azidyl radical and some contribution from a radical chain. The reaction is photon-limited and exhibits a zero-order dependence on amine, azide, and photocatalyst, with a first-order dependence on styrene.

- Transition-metal-free Intramolecular C-H amination of sulfamate esters and: N -alkylsulfamides
-
The transition-metal-free intramolecular C-H amination of sulfamate esters using iodine oxidants, tert-butyl hypoiodite (t-BuOI) and N-iodosuccinimide (NIS) is reported. A method using NIS was also successfully applied to the oxidative cyclization of N-alkylsulfamides.

- meta-Selective C?H Borylation of Benzylamine-, Phenethylamine-, and Phenylpropylamine-Derived Amides Enabled by a Single Anionic Ligand
-
Selective functionalization at the meta position of arenes remains a significant challenge. In this work, we demonstrate that a single anionic bipyridine ligand bearing a remote sulfonate group enables selective iridium-catalyzed borylation of a range of common amine-containing aromatic molecules at the arene meta position. We propose that this selectivity is the result of a key hydrogen bonding interaction between the substrate and catalyst. The scope of this meta-selective borylation is demonstrated on amides derived from benzylamines, phenethylamines and phenylpropylamines; amine-containing building blocks of great utility in many applications.

- Radical cyclization of ynamides into six- or eight-membered rings. Application to the synthesis of a protoberberine analog
-
A straightforward formation of six- and eight-membered rings via the radical cyclization of specifically designed ynamides is reported. This strategy provides a protoberberine analog in only three steps by a radical cyclization cascade.

- Intramolecular palladium-catalyzed aryl amination and aryl amidation

Upon treatment with a palladium catalyst and a suitable base, aromatic halides undergo intramolecular substitution to form five, six, and seven-membered rings. In a similar fashion aryl halides with pendant amides or sulfonamides are cyclized to form five and six-membered rings.
