The asymmetric synthesis of chiral polycyclic ethers by an intramolecular [2+2] photocycloaddition is described. This process proceeded through a photocatalytically active iminium ion-based charge transfer (CT) complex under visible light irradiation. In this way a stereocontrolled [2+2] photocycloaddition is enabled leading to tricyclic products with good enantiomeric ratios.
本文描述了通过分子内[2+2]光环加成反应不对称合成手性多环醚。该过程在可见光照射下通过光催化活性的亚胺离子基电荷转移(CT)复合物进行。通过这种方式,可以实现立体控制的[2+2]光环加成反应,得到具有良好对映选择性的三环产物。
