A direct assembly of secondary benzylureas and related amine derivatives via copper-catalyzed carboamination of styrenes with potassium alkyltrifluoroborates and ureas, anilines, or an amide is reported. Terminal and 1,2-disubstituted alkenes, as well as dienes, participate in this three-component coupling reaction. The reaction mechanism likely involves the addition of an alkyl radical to the styrene, followed by metal-mediated oxidative coupling of the resulting benzylic radical with the amine derivative. Factors that impact substrate reactivity and regioselectivity are discussed.
本文报道了通过铜催化的苯乙烯与钾烷基三氟硼酸盐、脲、苯胺或酰胺的碳氨化反应,直接合成仲苄基脲和相关胺衍生物。末端和 1,2-二取代烯烃以及二烯都参与了这个三组分偶联反应。反应机理可能涉及自由基加成到苯乙烯上,然后由金属介导的苄基自由基与胺衍生物的氧化偶联。讨论了影响底物反应性和区域选择性的因素。
