Radical-triggered translocation of C–C double bond and functional group
Multi-site functionalization of molecules provides a potent approach to accessing intricate compounds. However, simultaneous functionalization of the reactive site and the inert remote C(sp3)–H poses a formidable challenge, as chemical reactions conventionally occur at the most active site. In addition, achieving precise control over site selectivity for remote C(sp3)–H activation presents an additional hurdle. Here we report an alternative modular method for alkene difunctionalization, encompassing radical-triggered translocation of functional groups and remote C(sp3)–H desaturation via photo/cobalt dual catalysis. By systematically combining radical addition, functional group migration and cobalt-promoted hydrogen atom transfer, we successfully effectuate the translocation of the carbon–carbon double bond and another functional group with precise site selectivity and remarkable E/Z selectivity. This redox-neutral approach shows good compatibility with diverse fluoroalkyl and sulfonyl radical precursors, enabling the migration of benzoyloxy, acetoxy, formyl, cyano and heteroaryl groups. This protocol offers a resolution for the simultaneous transformation of manifold sites.
期刊介绍:
Nature Chemistry is a monthly journal that publishes groundbreaking and significant research in all areas of chemistry. It covers traditional subjects such as analytical, inorganic, organic, and physical chemistry, as well as a wide range of other topics including catalysis, computational and theoretical chemistry, and environmental chemistry.
