Abstract:
A novel Catellani-type conversion is reported using aryl-thianthreniums (aryl-TTs) instead of aryl halides. Three classes of ortho-dual C-H functionalization involving alkylation, amination, and deuterated methylation and five types of ipso-operation including alkenylation, cyanation, methylation, hydrogenation, and alkynylation all proceed well in this procedure. In this conversion, aryl-TTs exhibit satisfactory reactivity and feature the advantage that the leaving TT unit can be recovered. More strikingly, this finding represents a new chemistry conversion of aryl-TTs, wherein contiguous tri-functionalization in a single chemical manipulation is realized.
