Abstract
As part of our investigations into C–C bond scission and functionalization, we report a halodealkenylation in which the C(sp3)–C(sp2) bonds of alkenes are cleaved and C(sp3)–halide bonds are formed, via a radical intermediate. These transformations occur through Criegee ozonolysis and FeII-catalyzed reductive coupling assisted by vitamin C as a stoichiometric reductant. We applied this strategy to the formal synthesis of (R,R,R)-γ-tocopherol.
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.
