C-C σ-bond cleavage and reconstruction is a significant tool for structural modification in synthetic chemistry but it remains a formidable challenge to perform on unstrained skeletons. Herein, we describe a radical addition-enabled C-C σ-bond cleavage/reconstruction reaction of unstrained allyl ketones to access various functional indanones bearing a benzylic quaternary center. The synthetic utility of this method has been showcased by the first total synthesis of carexane L, an indanone-based natural product.
碳-碳σ键的断裂与重建是合成化学中进行结构修饰的重要手段,但在无张力骨架上实现这一过程仍然是一项艰巨的挑战。在此,我们报道了一种自由基加成促进的无张力烯丙基酮的碳-碳σ键断裂/重建反应,用于合成各种带有苄基季碳中心的官能化茚满酮。该方法的合成实用性已通过基于茚满酮的天然产物Carexane L的首次全合成得到了展示。
