Abstract
Compared with 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer (1,5-HAT) processes, 1,2-HAT processes have been reported less frequently. And, the synthesis of 2,5-diamino acid derivatives via a mild photocatalytic approach has not been reported yet. Herein, we report a photoexcited copper-catalyzed difunctionalization of alkenes for the synthesis of 2,5-diamino acid derivatives via uncommon 1,2-HAT. The potential synthetic merit of this reaction is proven through a scale-up reaction. Notably, this new protocol is successfully applied to obtain a series of 2,5-diamino acid derivatives.
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.
