Abstract
A sustainable photocatalytic approach has been established for trifluoroalkylation of isoquinoline via a three-component Minisci-type reaction using a green solvent. The polarity reversal radical cascade strategy renders the selective addition of an electrophilic CF3 radical to an olefin to forge a nucleophilic C-centered radical. This multicomponent approach is operationally simple and environmentally benign with various functional groups, viz. aldehydes, acetals, amides, and halides. Mechanistic investigations were carried out to elaborate the reductive quenching catalytic pathway.
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.
