Visible-light-induced sulfonylarylation of unactivated alkenes via 1,4-(hetero)aryl migration from oxygen or nitrogen to carbon

Abstract

Migration of a remote aryl group is a state-of-the-art strategy for difunctionalization of alkenes. Herein, we report a method for visible-light-induced sulfonylarylation reactions of unactivated alkenes via 1,4-(hetero)aryl migration from oxygen or nitrogen to carbon. Specifically, aryl ethers or aromatic amines bearing unactivated distal olefins underwent metal-free radical addition/aryl migration domino reactions to afford valuable sulfonylarylated alcohols or amines in good yields. This mild, atom- and step-economical method showed excellent functional group compatibility.
