The cyclization of neutral primary pent-4-enylaminyl radicals was investigated experimentally and theoretically. Unlike the corresponding secondary aminyl radicals, primary pent-4-enylaminyl radicals underwent efficient cyclization to afford the pyrrolidine and/or piperidine products in good to high yields. While the simple pent-4-enylaminyl radical gave predominately the 5-exo cyclization product, 4-chloropent-4-enylaminyl radicals led to the formation of the corresponding 6-endo cyclization products in excellent regioselectivity. Theoretical calculations revealed that the 5-exo cyclization rate of primary aminyl radicals is about 3-4 orders of magnitude higher than that of secondary aminyl radicals.
对中性伯戊-4-烯基氨基自由基的环化反应进行了实验和理论研究。与相应的仲氨基自由基不同,伯戊-4-烯基氨基自由基能高效环化,以良好至高产率得到吡咯烷和/或哌啶产物。虽然简单的戊-4-烯基氨基自由基主要生成5-外向环化产物,但4-氯戊-4-烯基氨基自由基能以优异的区域选择性生成相应的6-内向环化产物。理论计算表明,伯氨基自由基的5-外向环化速率比仲氨基自由基高约3-4个数量级。
