Title: Photoredox cooperative N-heterocyclic carbene/palladium-catalysed alkylacylation of alkenes. Author: Han YF, Huang Y, Liu H, Gao ZH, Zhang CL, Ye S. Journal: Nat Commun; 2022 Sep 30; 13(1):5754. PubMed ID: 36180483. Abstract: Three-component carboacylation of simple alkenes with readily available reagents is challenging. Transition metal-catalysed intermolecular carboacylation works for alkenes with strained ring or directing groups. Herein, we develop a photoredox cooperative N-heterocyclic carbene/Pd-catalysed alkylacylation of simple alkenes with aldehydes and unactivated alkyl halides to provide ketones in good yields. This multicomponent coupling reaction features a wide scope of alkenes, broad functional group compatibility and free of exogenous photosensitizer or external reductant. In addition, a series of chlorinated cyclopropanes with one or two vicinal quaternary carbons is obtained when chloroform or carbon tetrachloride is used as the alkyl halide. The reaction involves the alkyl radicals from halides and the ketyl radicals from aldehydes under photoredox cooperative N-heterocyclic carbene/Pd catalysis.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
