Selective addition of radicals to isonitriles can be harnessed for initiating reaction cascades designed to overcome the stereoelectronic restrictions on homoallylic ring expansion in alkyne reactions and to develop a new general route for the preparation of N-heteroaromatics. This method utilizes alkenes as synthetic equivalents of alkynes by coupling homoallylic ring expansion to yield the formal "6-endo" products with aromatization via stereoelectronically assisted C-C bond scission. Computational analysis of the homoallyic expansion potential energy surface reveals that the indirect 5-exo/3-exo/retro-3-exo path is faster than the direct 6-endo-trig closure, revealing the general exo-preference for the cyclization processes.

Stereoelectronic restrictions on homoallylic ring expansion in alkyne cascades can be overcome by using alkenes as synthetic equivalents of alkynes in reaction cascades that are terminated by C-C bond fragmentation. Implementation of this approach using Mn(iii)-mediated reaction of o-alkenyl isocyanides and boronic acids leads to efficient synthesis of substituted quinolines.
