Cascade reactions initiated by radical addition of tetrahydrofuran to β-bromonitrostyrenes

Abstract

A silver(I) catalyzed addition of THF radicals to β-bromonitrostyrenes under mild basic conditions in the presence of air has been developed. An isotope labelling experiment with 18O2 was conducted and showed that dioxygen was involved in the mechanism to form the carbonyl group.
