Abstract
A photo-promoted oxidative cyclization, that is, the Mallory reaction of 2,3-diarylbenzophopholes has been developed. With the assistance of Bi(OTf)3 Lewis acid, the reaction proceeds smoothly under visible light irradiation even without any external oxidants. The newly developed dehydrogenative conditions are compatible with various functional groups and substitution patterns, which enables the streamlined synthesis of highly condensed dibenzophosphole derivatives of potent interest in material chemistry. Moreover, experimental and computational studies unveil the detailed reaction mechanism. The preliminary optoelectronic properties of some newly synthesized compounds are also demonstrated.
期刊介绍:
Chemical Science is a journal that encompasses various disciplines within the chemical sciences. Its scope includes publishing ground-breaking research with significant implications for its respective field, as well as appealing to a wider audience in related areas. To be considered for publication, articles must showcase innovative and original advances in their field of study and be presented in a manner that is understandable to scientists from diverse backgrounds. However, the journal generally does not publish highly specialized research.
