An efficient and straightforward method has been developed for the synthesis of polysubstituted phenanthridines from simple aryl iodides and alkyl/aryl nitriles via the palladium-catalyzed nucleophilic addition of aryl iodides to nitriles followed by casc

The photochemistry of several 6-substituted phenanthridine N-oxides has been investigated, or reinvestigated, in benzene and ethanol.The main processes observed are: (a) 1,2-oxygen and substituent shift to yield N-substituted phenanthridones (2) and (b) ring enlargements to dibenzo-1,3-oxazepines (7).With 6-diphenylmethylphenanthridine N-oxide (1b) rearrangement (a) predominates and occurs with 45percent substituent loss in benzene (but only 2percent in ethanol).With the 6-phenylderivative (1c) process (a) predominates in ethanol and process (b) in benzene and with the 6-p-nitrophenyl derivative (1d) the latter process predominates in both solvents.With 6-cyanophenanthridine N-oxide (1e) rearrangement (b) predominates in benzene; in the presence of 2,3-dimethylbutene (but not of cyclohexene) addition products are obtained; with dienes deoxygenation is the main process.Medium and substituents may change the nature of the lowest excited singlet state, but more importantly affect the stability of an intermediate of diradical character occurring along the reaction pathway, thus driving it towards rearrangement (a) or (b).Intermediate diradicals are unambiguously indicated only in particular cases but their role is probably more general.
