A wide array of polysubstituted 1-bromo and chloronaphthalenes are obtained from coupling of allylbenzenes and polyhalomethanes. The reaction is mediated by iron metal under visible light irradiation and proceeds via a Kharasch addition intermediate followed by intramolecular FeIII mediated Friedel-Crafts alkylation, with the formation of two Csp2?Csp2 bonds in the process. This method gives easy access to 1-halonaphthalenes with substituent(s) at C-5 to C-8 that are otherwise hard to synthesize. (Figure presented.).

Page/Page column 12; 14, (2008/06/13)
The present invention refers to a process for preparing a compound of the formula (I) wherein R denotes an organic radical which, together with the two carbon atoms to which it is bonded, forms a carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring; R1, R2, R3 and X, independently, denote hydrogen, halogen, nitro, cyano or an organic radical; or R1 and R2 or R2 and R3, together with the carbon atoms to which they are bonded, form a ring; which comprises exposing a compound of the formula (II) wherein R1, R2, R3 and X are defined as given above and Y and Z, independently, have one of the meanings of X; to an energy source in the presence of a catalyst system.

(Chemical Equation Presented) On a short fuse: Although fused aromatic rings are common structural motifs in natural products, there are relatively few direct methods for the preparation of such systems from acyclic precursors. An atom-transfer radical cyclization carried out under microwave (MW) irradiation has now been developed which gives rapid access to functionalized aromatic compounds from readily available starting materials (see scheme).
