We report the first examples of radical cation Smiles rearrangements. A series of aryloxy alkylamines underwent spontaneous reaction, with the amino group displacing theipso-alkoxy group through substitution, at ambient temperature and under photoactivation by visible light in the presence of an acridinium catalyst (5 mol%). The study was extended to 3-(2-methoxyphenyl)propan-1-amine derivatives, which lack an appropriateipsoleaving group. Here, efficient cyclisations resulted in displacement of the methoxy group and formation of tetrahydroquinolines.

By using the commercially available ruthenium pincer complex (Ru-MACHO-BH) as a catalyst, the challenging direct hydrogenation of lactams and analogues has been successfully accomplished to deliver corresponding value-added amino alcohols in good-to-excellent yields under mild reaction conditions. Remarkably, in addition to N-protected lactams, unprotected ones could also be readily reduced in the presence of a catalytic amount of weak base or even under neutral reaction conditions, which further highlights the broad substrate scope and the protocol efficiency.
