This work demonstrates photoredox vicinal dichlorination of alkenes, based on the homolysis of CuCl2 in response to irradiation with visible light. This catalysis proceeds via a ligand to metal charge transfer process and provides an exciting opportunity for the synthesis of 1,2-dichloride compounds using an inexpensive, low-molecular-weight chlorine source. This new process exhibits a wide substrate scope, excellent functional group tolerance, extraordinarily mild conditions and does not require external ligands. Mechanistic studies show that the ready formation of chlorine atom radicals is responsible for the facile formation of C?Cl bonds in this synthetic process.

This Article describes the preparation and isolation of novel octahedral CH2-bridged bis-(N-heterocyclic carbene)palladium(IV) tetrachlorides of the general formula LPdIVCl4 [L = (NHC)CH 2(NHC)] from LPdIICl2 and Cl2. In intermolecular, nonchelation-controlled transformations LPdIVCl 4 reacted with alkenes and alkynes to 1,2-dichlorination adducts. Aromatic, benzylic, and aliphatic C-H bonds were converted into C-Cl bonds. Detailed mechanistic investigations in the dichlorinations of alkenes were conducted on the 18VE PdIV complex. Positive solvent effects as well as kinetic measurements probing the impact of cyclohexene and chloride concentrations on the rate of alkene chlorination support a PdIV-Cl ionization in the first step. Product stereochemistry and product distributions from various alkenes also support Cl+-transfer from the pentacoordinated PdIV-intermediate LPdIVCl 3+ to olefins. 1-Hexene/3-hexene competition experiments rule out both the formation of π-complexes along the reaction coordinate as well as in situ generated Cl2 from a reductive elimination process. Instead, a ligand-mediated direct Cl+-transfer from LPd IVCl3+ to the π-system is likely to occur. Similarly, C-H bond chlorinations proceed via an electrophilic process with in situ formed LPdIVCl3+. The presence of a large excess of added Cl- slows cyclohexene chlorination while the presence of stoichiometric amounts of chloride accelerates both PdIV-Cl ionization and Cl+-transfer from LPdIVCl3 +. 1H NMR titrations, T1 relaxation time measurements, binding isotherms, and Job plot analysis point to the formation of a trifurcated Cl-...H-C bond in the NHC-ligand periphery as a supramolecular cause for the accelerated chemical events involving the metal center.
Synthesis of chloroalkoxypyridinium salts by conjugate chlorination of unsaturated compounds in the presence of pyridine N-oxides

Conjugate chlorination of terminal alkenes in the presence of pyridine N-oxides yields mixtures of regioisomeric chloroalkoxypyridinium chlorides. The same reaction with internal arylalkenes is regioselective, but the resulting quaternary salt is a mixture of erythro and threo stereoisomers.
