Organocatalytic synthesis of β-enaminyl radicals as single-electron donors for phenyliodine(iii) dicarboxylates: direct one-pot alkylation–aminoxidation of styrenes

Abstract

A direct one-pot alkylation-aminoxidation of styrene derivatives was achieved by using in-situ-generated alkyl and N-oxyl radicals. The corresponding O-alkylated hydroxylamine derivatives were obtained in moderate to good yields. The reaction...

The diacetyliminoxyl radical in oxidative functionalization of alkenes

“…[1][2][3] Besides traditional metal-catalyzed and ionic reactions, 1,[4][5][6] recent years have witnessed the upsurge of free-radical transformations, [7][8][9][10][11] which offer rapid introduction of functional groups in a convenient and efficient manner. To date selective functionalization of alkenes has been achieved with the formation of C-C, [12][13][14] C-S, [15][16][17] C-O, 16,[18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25] C-P [26][27][28] and C-N [29][30][31][32][33] bonds.…”
