Abstract
We disclose a gold-mediated photocyclization method for the efficient synthesis of acrylamide-derived β-lactams and 3,4-dihydroquinolin-2-ones, two privileged bioactive scaffolds. The protocol proceeds with ease, providing good yields of product while exhibiting excellent functional group tolerance at low catalyst loadings in sustainable solvents. Additionally, reaction times are significantly reduced compared with prior-art methods. Notably, the present gold system exhibits superior performance in activating poorly conjugated substrates, which are typically unreactive with other photocatalysts, highlighting the exceptional position of this organogold system among modern photocatalysts.
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.
