Visible-Light-Mediated [4+2] Cycloaddition of Styrenes: Synthesis of Tetralin Derivatives

We report a formal [4+2] cycloaddition reaction of styrenes under visible-light catalysis. Two styrene molecules with different electronic or steric properties were found to react with each other in good yield and excellent chemo- and regioselectivity. This reaction provides direct access to polysubstituted tetralin scaffolds from readily available styrenes. Sophisticated tricyclic and tetracyclic tetralin analogues were prepared in high yield and up to 20/1 diasteroselectivity from cyclic substrates.

General synthesis of 8-aryl-2-tetralones

Two alternative routes are described for the synthesis of 8-aryl-2-tetralones (1). Route A starts from α-tetralone 3 and involves 3 or 4 steps, with the selective Na-EtOH reduction of 1-aryl-7-methoxynaphthalenes 2 being the key step. The exclusive reduct

Ring selectivity in the Na/EtOH reduction of 1-aryl-7-methoxynaphthalenes

Na/EtOH reduction of 1-aryl-7-methoxynaphthalenes occurred preferentially at the A-ring when no substituents were present at the ortho-positions of the aryl group (up to 100% selectivity), to afford 1-aryl-7-methoxy-1,2,3,4- tetrahydronaphthalenes. Ortho-

Nanosecond and picosecond dynamics of the radical cation mediated dimerization of 4-methoxystyrene

The addition of the 4-methoxystyrene radical cation to neutral 4-methoxystyrene and the cleavage reactions of the 1,2-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)cyclobutane radical cation in acetonitrile have been studied by product analysis and by nanosecond and picosecond tra

An approach to the biomimetic synthesis of aryltetralin lignans

The BF3 catalysed cyclisation of 3-arylpropyl substituted quinone-methide ketals affords a mild, biomimetic route to aryltetralins. 1H- and 13C-NMR spectra of the products are reported.
