The introduction of chlorine atoms into organic molecules is fundamental to the manufacture of industrial chemicals, the elaboration of advanced synthetic intermediates and also the fine-tuning of physicochemical and biological properties of drugs, agrochemicals and polymers. We report here a general and practical photochemical strategy enabling the site-selective chlorination of sp3 C?H bonds. This process exploits the ability of protonated N-chloroamines to serve as aminium radical precursors and also radical chlorinating agents. Upon photochemical initiation, an efficient radical-chain propagation is established allowing the functionalization of a broad range of substrates due to the large number of compatible functionalities. The ability to synergistically maximize both polar and steric effects in the H-atom transfer transition state through appropriate selection of the aminium radical has provided the highest known selectivity in radical sp3 C?H chlorination.

The free-radical chlorination of 1-substituted alkanes with electron-withdrawing substituents by N-chloropiperidine in trifluoroacetic acid was studied by the method of competing reactions, and the relative rate constants were obtained for all positions of the substrates.The data on the position selectivity can be described satisfactorily by means of an electrostatic model of the polar effect of the substituent, calculated according to the Kirkwood-Westheimer equation.The obtained characteristics of the electrostatic effect can be successfully applied to calculation of the substrate selectivity and the intermolecular relative rate constants for all the positions, beginning with the third.The Taft equation is unsuitable for description of the effect of substituents on the reaction rate.
