Abstract
AbstractA novel strategy of visible‐light photoredox catalysis ipso‐annulation of activated alkynes with polychloroalkanes for the synthesis of 3‐polychloroalkyl spiro[4,5]trienones, which used 4‐methoxybenzenediazonium tetrafluoroborate salt as a hydrogen atom transfer reagent, is described. This polychloroalkylation/ spirocyclization of alkynes offers a widely range of 3‐polychloroalkyl‐spiro[4,5]trienone derivatives in high yields with a broad substrate scope via selective C(sp3)‐H homolytic cleavage. The results of controlled experiments showed that this method involves a radical process. The polyhaloalkyl radical species generated from intermolecular hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) between aryl radical and polychloroalkanes.
