Prenylation is an essential reaction on which nature relies to modify properties of molecules and build terpenoids, but remains a challenging chemical reaction. Aiming to capitalize on recent advances in photocatalysis to easily and cleanly generate a broad range of carbon based radicals, we have developed a prenyl transfer reagent that is captured by transiently generated radicals. The reagent can be made in bulk, is bench stable, and broadly applicable such that it can be used with existing photocatalytic methods with very few changes to reaction conditions. Ultimately, this provides a true drop-in solution for prenylation, expanding the scope of substrates that can be readily prenylated.

A straightforward synthesis of isoindolinones has been developed via a [3 + 3] benzannulation of 4-arylmethylene-2,3-dioxopyrrolidines and 1,3-bissulfonylpropenes (or 4-sulfonylcrotonates). A series of functionalized isoindolinones were obtained in excellent yields. The reaction could be carried out under mild conditions without transition metal catalyst. The finding provides a practical approach for the preparation of isoindolinone derivatives with potential biological activities.
Radical-chain reactions of sulfonyl azides and of ethyl azidoformate with allylstannanes: Homolytic allylation at nitrogen

4-Methylbenzenesulfonyl azide reacts with allyltriphenylstannane (ATPS) in refluxing benzene, in the presence of 2,2′-azobis(2-methylpropionitrile) as initiator, to give N-allyl-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide in good yield after hydrolytic work-up. Small amounts of allyl 4-methylphenyl sulfone were also formed. The reaction follows a free-radical chain mechanism which involves competitive addition of Ph5Sn? to Na and to Nc of the azido group in ArSO2NaNbNc. Addition to Na followed by loss of nitrogen gives ArSO2NSnPh3, the precursor of the N-allylarenesulfonamide, while addition to Nc leads to the formation of ArSO2 and thence to the allyl aryl sulfone. Allyltrimethylstannane behaves in a similar way to ATPS, but allyltributylstannane gives only a low yield of N-allylarenesulfonamide and the major product is the unsubstituted sulfonamide MeC6H4SO2NH2, which results because the radical ArSO2NSnBu3 undergoes intramolecular 1,5-hydrogen-atom transfer in preference to adding to the allylstannane. 2-Methylallyltriphenylstannane reacts in an analogous way to ATPS, but allylstannanes containing non-terminal double bonds do not react successfully. The arenesulfonyl azides 4-XC6H4SO2N3 (X = H, MeO, F) react in a similar way to tosyl azide, but the reaction is very sluggish when X = NO2? With 1-octanesulfonyl azide, reaction with Ph3Sn? is much less selective and products arising from attack at Na and Nc are formed in comparable yields. Ethyl azidoformate reacts with allylstannanes in a similar manner to, although more slowly than, tosyl azide and gives good yields of the corresponding allylic carbamates.
