Abstract
A regioselective C(sp2)-H nitrosation and nitration protocol has been successfully developed for the modification of various undirected bioactive molecules by using the economical and nontoxic Fe(NO3)3.9H2O as nitroso/nitro source. This method is conducted under acid-free and ease of handling conditions and is featured with good regioselectivity as well as a broad substrate scope (38 examples; yields up to 90 %). This reaction could be conducted on a gram scale with good efficiency, demonstrating high utility for the synthesis and modification of drug and material molecules. Detailed mechanistic studies indicate that the formation of the nitroso or nitro products might be proceeded via the radical cross coupling of aryl radical cation intermediates with nitroso or nitro radical.
期刊介绍:
Tetrahedron publishes full accounts of research having outstanding significance in the broad field of organic chemistry and its related disciplines, such as organic materials and bio-organic chemistry.
Regular papers in Tetrahedron are expected to represent detailed accounts of an original study having substantially greater scope and details than that found in a communication, as published in Tetrahedron Letters.
Tetrahedron also publishes thematic collections of papers as special issues and ''Reports'', commissioned in-depth reviews providing a comprehensive overview of a research area.
