Synthesis of 2,5-Diaryl-1,5-dienes from Allylic Bromides Using Visible-Light Photoredox Catalysis

Visible-light photoreductive coupling of 2-arylallyl bromides in the presence of the photocatalyst Ru(bpy)3(PF6)2, a Hantzsch ester, and i-Pr2NEt gives 2,5-diaryl-1,5-dienes in high yield. This method avoids the use of stoichiometric metal reductants and is compatible with the presence of halogen, alkyl, electron-donating, and electron-withdrawing substituents on the aromatic ring.

Reaction of 2-Aryl-3-(N,N-dimethylamino)-1-propenes and Their Corresponding Quaternary Ammonium Salts with Organometallic Species and Reducing Agents

A series of 2-aryl-3-(N,N-dimethylamino)-1-propenes and their corresponding quaternary ammonium salts were reacted with a variety of organometallic species and reducing agents.The utility of such reactions for the preparation of α-substituted styrene derivatives is discussed.
