Abstract
AbstractThe photoredox‐neutral catalyzed cyclopropanation of 1,1‐disubstituted alkenes via radical addition‐anionic cyclization cascade has been successfully developed. Another new protocol based on photocatalytic allylation and cyclopropanation cascade was also described between allylic halide and halomethyl radical. In addition to the successful use of bis‐catecholato silicates as the alkyl radical precursors, the acyl and alkyl radicals derived from 1,4‐dihydropyridines were also engaged in this radical‐polar crossover process. The competing experiments displayed that the 3‐exo‐tet mode of cyclization preferred over 4‐exo and 5‐exo cyclization modes, allowing for the selective 3‐exo‐tet cyclization. The superior nucleofuge character of bromide over chloride and tosylate has been demonstrated in the reaction of bromomethyl radical with homoallylic (pseudo)halides. This new protocol is characterized by its redox‐neutral process, broad substrate scope, mild conditions, and good functional‐group compatibility.magnified image
