An enantioselective, radical-based method for the intramolecular hydroamination of alkenes with sulfonamides is reported. These reactions are proposed to proceed via N-centered radicals formed by proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) activation of sulfonamide N-H bonds. Noncovalent interactions between the neutral sulfonamidyl radical and a chiral phosphoric acid generated in the PCET event are hypothesized to serve as the basis for asymmetric induction in a subsequent C-N bond forming step, achieving selectivities of up to 98:2 er. These results offer further support for the ability of noncovalent interactions to enforce stereoselectivity in reactions of transient and highly reactive open-shell intermediates.

We report a catalytic, light-driven method for the intramolecular hydroetherification of unactivated alkenols to furnish cyclic ether products. These reactions occur under visible-light irradiation in the presence of an IrIII-based photoredox catalyst, a Br?nsted base catalyst, and a hydrogen-atom transfer (HAT) co-catalyst. Reactive alkoxy radicals are proposed as key intermediates, generated by direct homolytic activation of alcohol O?H bonds through a proton-coupled electron-transfer mechanism. This method exhibits a broad substrate scope and high functional-group tolerance, and it accommodates a diverse range of alkene substitution patterns. Results demonstrating the extension of this catalytic system to carboetherification reactions are also presented.

A simple and efficient process to cyclize triols containing a 1,2-diol functionality with a pendant hydroxyl group is presented. The one-pot procedure converts the 1,2-diol into an ortho ester in situ, which upon treatment with a Lewis acid generates a cyclic acetoxonium intermediate. This intermediate is subsequently trapped by the pendant hydroxyl group to generate a cyclic ether. The stereochemistry of the 1,2-diol is transferred to the product with complete fidelity (inversion at the site of cyclization), and the reaction proceeds with high regioselectivity. The process is akin to the Lewis acid-catalyzed intramolecular ring-opening of epoxides with hydroxyl groups yielding cyclic ethers of various sizes with regio- and stereochemical control. Copyright
Consecutive 6-endo trigonal cyclisations from polyene acyl radical intermediates leading to decalone and perhydrophenanthrone ring constructions

A range of substituted Se-phenyl 5,9-dieneselenoates, viz. 15a, 25, 26, 27, 42 and 52, have been synthesised and their reactions with Bu3SnH-AIBN investigated.The diene esters 15a, 42 and 52 are shown to lead to decalone and to perhydrophenanthrone derivatives, viz. 19, 43 and 53, respectively, via consecutive 6-endo trig modes of cyclisations starting from the corresponding 5,9-diene acyl radical intermediates.By contrast, the 5,9-dienoates 25 and 27 lacking alkyl substitution at C-9 instead underwent cyclisation to the indanones 36 and 37, respectively, and the 6-methyl substituted analogue 26 produced only the cyclopentanone 38 on treatment with Bu3SnH-AIBN.

Substitution reactions of allylic acetates and allylic alcohols by a variety of nucleophiles proceed smoothly in the presence of lithium perchlorate in ether, providing a convenient alternative to transition metal catalyzed methods.
