Fig. 2: Cyclopropane substrate scope of photoredox-coupled C(sp3)–heteroatom bond formation.
From: Photoredox-catalyzed C–C bond cleavage of cyclopropanes for the formation of C(sp3)–heteroatom bonds
Reaction conditions: arylcyclopropane (0.2 mmol, 1 equiv.), EtOH (2 mmol, 10 equiv.) or TfNH2 (0.3 mmol, 1.5 equiv.), photocatalyst (2 mol%), (PhS)2 (0.04 mmol, 0.2 equiv.), 2,6-ditBu-Py (0.05 mmol, 0.25 equiv.) and DCE (1.0 mL, 0.2 M) at 25 oC for 48 h under irradiation of a 15 W blue LED lamp.
