Contra-Thermodynamic Positional Isomerization of Olefins
Zhao, Kuo,Knowles, Robert R.
supporting information, p. 137 - 144 (2022/01/19)
A light-driven method for the contra-thermodynamic positional isomerization of olefins is described. In this work, stepwise PCET activation of a more substituted and more thermodynamically stable olefin substrate is mediated by an excited-state oxidant an

We report here an efficient and highly straightforward access to α-difluoromethylated ketones through a visible light-mediated difluoromethylation of readily available enol silanes. The method, which takes advantage of the polyvalence of Hu's reagent, N-tosyl-S-difluoromethyl-S-phenylsulfoximine, used here as a CHF2 radical precursor under catalytic photoredox conditions, is practical, scalable, and provides the corresponding α-CHF2 ketones in good to excellent yields.

Due to the high reactivity of alkoxyl (RO·) radicals and their propensity to easily undergo β-scission or Hydrogen Atom Transfer (HAT) reactions, intermolecular alkoxylations involving RO· radicals are barely described. We report herein for the first time the efficient intermolecular trapping of alkoxyl radicals by silyl enol ethers. This photoredox-mediated protocol enables the introduction of both structurally simple and more complex alkoxy groups into a wide range of ketones and amides.
Catalytic [3+2] annulation of aminocyclopropanes for the enantiospecific synthesis of cyclopentylamines
De Nanteuil, Florian,Waser, Jerome

With nitrogen too: The first catalytic [3+2] annulation of aminocyclopropanes with enol ethers is reported (see scheme; Phth=phthaloyl). The reaction worked with easily accessible phthalimidocyclopropanes using 5 mol % of SnCl4 in nearly quantitative yields. Polysubstituted cyclopentylamines, which are often present in bioactive compounds, were obtained with high diastereoselectivity and enantiospecificity. Copyright
