Xu, Pin; Fan, Wenzheng; Chen, Pinhong; Liu, Guosheng published the artcile< Enantioselective Radical Trifluoromethylation of Benzylic C-H Bonds via Cooperative Photoredox and Copper Catalysis>, Quality Control of 2725-82-8, the main research area is benzylic trifluoromethyl preparation enantioselective; alkyl arene trifluoromethylation photoredox copper catalyst.
The first enantioselective radical trifluoromethylation of benzylic C-H bonds has been established by a cooperative photoredox and copper catalysis system, providing straightforward access to structurally diverse benzylic trifluoromethylation products RCH(CF3)CH2R1 [R = Ph, 2-phenyl-1,3-benzothiazol-6-yl, 4-cyclopropylphenyl, etc.; R1 = H, n-Pr, 2-(1,3-dioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-isoindol-2-yl)ethyl, 2-chloroethyl, etc.] in good yields with excellent enantioselectivities under mild conditions. A broad substrate scope and excellent functional group compatibility were reported. Merging the cooperative photoredox catalysis with copper catalysis is essential for the reaction, where the photoredox catalysis is used for the generation of benzylic radicals from alkyl arenes alkyl arenes RCH2CH2R1 through a hydrogen atom transfer process and the copper catalysis is used for the enantioselective trifluoromethylation of the benzylic radicals.
