While olefin amination with aminium radical cations is a classical method for C-N bond formation, catalytic variants that utilize simple 2° amine precursors remain largely undeveloped. Herein we report a new visible-light photoredox protocol for the intramolecular anti-Markovnikov hydroamination of aryl olefins that proceeds through catalytically generated aminium radical intermediates. Mechanistic studies are consistent with a process involving amine oxidation via electron transfer, turnover-limiting C-N bond formation, and a second electron transfer step to reduce a carbon-centered radical, rendering the overall process redox-neutral. A range of structurally diverse N-aryl heterocycles can be prepared in good to excellent yields under conditions significantly milder than those required by conventional aminium-based protocols.

A high yielding and convenient synthesis of 2-aryl-2,5-dihydro-2H-pyrans is reported. Sonogashira coupling of 4-pentyn-1-ol and 5-hexyn-2-ol with a range of phenyl and naphthyl bromides affords the appropriate aryl acetylenic alcohols which then undergo r

A series of hitherto unknown N-(pent-4-enyl-1-oxy)pyridine-2(1H)-thiones (6) were prepared from substituted pent-4-enyl tosylates or benzylic chlorides.On irradiation with incandescent light heterocycles 6 liberated alkoxy radicals 2, which were studied for rearrangement reactions.Surprisingly, all transformations involving the 1-phenylpent-4-enyl-1-oxy radical (2a), for example, to give the substituted thioether 8, 2-bromomethyl-5-phenyltetrahydrofuran (11), or the tetrahydrofuran 14a, were not stereoselective.On the other hand 2-, 3-mono-, and 1,5-disubstituted pent-4-enyl-1-oxy radicals 2d-e and 2g cyclized in good yields and with good to excellent stereoselectivities to give the corresponding 2,4-cis- and 2,3-trans-phenyltetrahydrofurfuryl radicals 3d-e, and the trans-2-benzyl-5-methyl substituted intermediate 3g.The major reaction mode of the 4-phenylpent-4-enyl-1-oxy radical (2f) was the 6-endo cyclization, which afforded 3-phenyltetrahydropyran (13f) as the major product (endo:exo=93:7) after trapping with hydrogen donors.According to the experimental data of the present study, the unusual reactivity of the 1-phenylpent-4-enyl-1-oxy radical (2a) in 5-exo-trig ring closures could be caused by a coplanar arrangement of the benzyloxy moiety in the transition state of the cyclization.This interaction would lock the radical center in 2a in a preferred conformation, which would result in similar steric effects for both cis- and trans-cyclizations. - Keywords: alkoxy radicals; cyclizations; pyridinethiones; radicals; tetrahydrofurans
