ABSTRACT
Allyl carboxylates are useful synthetic intermediates in a variety of organic transformations, including catalytic nucleophilic/electrophilic allylic substitution reactions and 1,2-difunctionalization reactions. However, the catalytic 1,3-difunctionalization of allyl carboxylates remains elusive. Herein, we report the first photoinduced, phosphine-catalyzed 1,3-carbobromination of allyl carboxylates, affording a range of valuable substituted isopropyl carboxylates (sIPC). The transformation has broad functional group tolerance, is amenable to the late-stage modification of complex molecules and gram-scale synthesis, and expands the reaction profiles of allyl carboxylates and phosphine catalysis. Preliminary experimental and computational studies suggest a non-chain-radical mechanism involving the formation of an electron donor-acceptor complex, 1,2-radical migration (RaM), and Br-atom transfer processes. We anticipate that the 1,2-RaM reactivity of allyl carboxylates and the phosphine-catalyzed radical reaction will both serve as a platform for the development of new transformations in organic synthesis.
