Abstract:Methylene blue-sensitized photooxygenation of several a-cyclogeranyl derivatives affords the exocyclic allylic hydroperoxides in 94-99% regioselectivity, while the diastereoselectivity varies from 50-97% de in favor of the cis isomer, depending on the substituents. By contrast, the ene reaction with N-phenyltriazolinedione affords significantly different regioselectivity and diastereoselectivity.The often fascinating regiochemistry and diastereoselection in the ene reaction of singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) with ole… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
