An intermolecular addition of carbon radicals enabled by a cascade radical coupling strategy is developed. It includes an intermolecular alkyl radical addition to a carbonyl group followed by an intramolecular alkoxy radical addition to haloarenes and produces substituted benzofurans in high yields. The radical nature of this reaction is explored by radical trapping experiments and EPR analysis. The mechanism is investigated by KIE experiments and control experiments. This method could provide rapid and practical access to the key intermediate of TAM-16, a safe and potent antibacterial agent for treating tuberculosis, and, therefore, is of great importance for organic synthesis and the pharmaceutical industry.

An intramolecular direct arylation of various aryl bromides was performed using ultrasonic irradiation and a continuous flow capillary microreactor. The present procedure provided a higher functional group tolerance, ligand-free, milder reaction condition

A catalyst for the intramolecular direct arylation of a broad range of simple and heterocyclic arenes with aryl iodides, bromides, and chlorides has been developed. These reactions occur in excellent yield and are highly selective. Studies with aryl iodides substrates revealed that catalyst poisoning occurs due to the accumulation of iodide in the reaction media. This can be overcome by the addition of silver salts which also permits these reactions to occur at lower temperature. The utility of the methodology is illustrated by a rapid synthesis of a carbazole natural product and by the synthesis of sterically encumbered tetra-ortho-substituted biaryls via ring-opening reactions of the direct arylation products. Mechanistic investigations have provided insight into the catalyst's mode of action and show the presence of a kinetically significant C-H bond cleavage in palladium-catalyzed direct arylation of simple arenes. Knowledge garnered from these studies has led to the development of new intermolecular arylation reactions with previously inaccessible arenes, opening the door for the development of other new direct arylation processes.
Synthesis and reactivity of benzylic sulfonium salts: Benzylation of phenol and thiophenol under near-neutral conditions

A series of benzyldimethylsulfonium - and related hydrogensulfate salts have been synthesized from the ternary system ArCH2OH:H2SO4: Me2S or tetrahydrothiophene. The salts are generally stable crystalline solids, but anomalously high reactivity is observed for 9-(anthrylmethyl)dimethylsulfonium hydrogensulfate. Selected sulfonium salts have been used for the O- and S-benzylation of phenol and thiophenol, respectively, in a two phase system under near-neutral conditions. The benzylation of oximes and benzimidazole under basic conditions is also described.
