Microwave irradiation (2.45 GHz, 300 - 500 W) of N-(alkoxy)thiazole-2(3H)-thiones in low-absorbing solvents affords alkoxyl radicals, which were identified by (i) spin adduct formation (EPR-spectroscopy) and (ii) fingerprint-type selectivities in intramolecular additions ( stereoselective synthesis of disubstituted tetrahydrofurans), beta-fragmentations ( formation of carbonyl compounds), and C, H-activation of aliphatic subunits, by delta-selective hydrogen atom transfer. C-Radicals formed f...Microwave irradiation (2.45 GHz, 300 - 500 W) of N-(alkoxy)thiazole-2(3H)-thiones in low-absorbing solvents affords alkoxyl radicals, which were identified by (i) spin adduct formation (EPR-spectroscopy) and (ii) fingerprint-type selectivities in intramolecular additions ( stereoselective synthesis of disubstituted tetrahydrofurans), beta-fragmentations ( formation of carbonyl compounds), and C, H-activation of aliphatic subunits, by delta-selective hydrogen atom transfer. C-Radicals formed from oxygen-centered intermediates were trapped either by Bu3SnH, L-cysteine ethyl ester, the reduced form of glutathione ( reductive trapping), or by bromine atom donor BrCCl3 (heteroatom functionalization) The results suggest that microwave activation is superior to UV/Vis-photolysis and conductive heating for alkoxyl radical generation from N-( alkoxy) thiazolethiones. It offers by far the shortest reaction times along with the option to reduce the amount of trapping reagent significantly. » weiterlesen» einklappen
