Abstract
A new visible-light-mediated radical cyclization of alkynoates with acyl chlorides is described for the one-pot construction of diverse 3-acylcoumarins with high efficiency and selectivity. This method is successful by sequential difunctionalization of an alkynes CC triple bond with the CCl bonds of acyl chloride and aromatic C(sp2)H bonds. The cyclization is proposed to simultaneously form two new carbon–carbon bonds, and involves radical acylation, 5-exo-trig cyclization, and ester migration.
