Abstract
With the flourishing progress of ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) photocatalysis, various metals were developed as catalysts to activate abundant alkane feedstocks for the synthesis of functionalized organic compounds. However, to the best of our knowledge, most of the LMCT catalysts are difficult to recover and reuse for the next cycles. Herein, we report a reusable Lewis acidic ionic liquid (LAIL)-catalyzed radical-cascade alkylation/cyclization of N-alkyl-N-methacryloyl benzamides with unactivated alkanes for the synthesis of alkylated isoquinoline-1,3-(2H,4H)-diketones. The protocol features mild reaction conditions, high atom utilization efficiency, scale-up synthesis, simple operation, and recycling of catalysts.
期刊介绍:
Organic Letters invites original reports of fundamental research in all branches of the theory and practice of organic, physical organic, organometallic,medicinal, and bioorganic chemistry. Organic Letters provides rapid disclosure of the key elements of significant studies that are of interest to a large portion of the organic community. In selecting manuscripts for publication, the Editors place emphasis on the originality, quality and wide interest of the work. Authors should provide enough background information to place the new disclosure in context and to justify the rapid publication format. Back-to-back Letters will be considered. Full details should be reserved for an Article, which should appear in due course.
