[reaction: see text] A dimethylzinc-air initiator was applied to the generation of primary alkyl radicals from alkyl iodides. The addition of the generated primary alkyl radicals to N-tosylimines was accelerated by the action of boron trifluoride-diethyl etherate and copper(II) triflate to give the corresponding adducts in good yields after 2-3 h. Air oxygen was essential for the reaction to proceed, showing involvement of a radical process in the reaction.
[反应:见正文] 二甲基锌-空气引发剂被用于从碘代烷生成伯烷基自由基。在三氟化硼-乙醚络合物和三氟甲磺酸铜(II)的作用下,所生成的伯烷基自由基对N-甲苯磺酰亚胺的加成反应得以加速,2-3小时后以良好的产率得到相应的加合物。空气氧对于反应的进行至关重要,表明反应中涉及自由基过程。
