Photo-Cross-Coupling Reaction of Electron-Rich Aryl Chlorides and Aryl Esters with Alkynes: A Metal-Free Alkynylation

Photoheterolysis of aryl halides substituted with electron‐donating groups (EDGs) or aryl esters in 2,2,2‐trifluoroethanol (TFE) leads to phenyl cations, which can add to alkynes (see scheme, Tf=trifluoromethanesulfonyl). This reaction is an appealing metal‐free alternative to the (sila)‐Sonogashira...

Description
Summary:Photoheterolysis of aryl halides substituted with electron‐donating groups (EDGs) or aryl esters in 2,2,2‐trifluoroethanol (TFE) leads to phenyl cations, which can add to alkynes (see scheme, Tf=trifluoromethanesulfonyl). This reaction is an appealing metal‐free alternative to the (sila)‐Sonogashira reaction.
