Photoredox Catalytic Synthesis of Indoles via Direct N–H Activation to Generate Putative Aminyl Radicals
Visible-light-excited 3,6-bis(trifluoromethyl)-9,10-phenanthrenequinone (PQ-CF3*) was used as a photocatalyst in the synthesis of 3-substituted N-pyridyl indoles via cyclization of 2-vinylarylamines, where the photocatalyst was catalytically regenerated with the chloro(pyridine)cobaloxime complex. The versatility of the reaction was shown with 22 substrates providing up to 83% yields. Based on the mechanistic studies, we propose that PQ-CF3 directly activates the N–H bond, generating a nitrogen-centered aminyl radical as the key intermediate.
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.
