Nitrogen heterocycles are ubiquitous in natural products and pharmaceuticals. Herein, we disclose a nitrogen complexation strategy that employs a strong Brønsted acid (HBF4) or an azaphilic Lewis acid (BF3) to enable remote, non-directed C(sp(3))-H oxidations of tertiary, secondary, and primary amine- and pyridine-containing molecules with tunable iron catalysts. Imides resist oxidation and promote remote functionalization.
氮杂环广泛存在于天然产物和药物中。在此,我们公开了一种氮络合策略,该策略采用强布朗斯特酸(HBF₄)或亲氮路易斯酸(BF₃),以实现含叔胺、仲胺、伯胺和吡啶分子的远程、非导向C(sp³)-H氧化反应,所用铁催化剂具有可调节性。酰亚胺具有抗氧化性并能促进远程官能化。
