Pan, Yingying; Gong, Yuxin; Song, Yanhong; Tong, Weiqi; Gong, Hegui published an article in 2019, the title of the article was Deoxygenative cross-electrophile coupling of benzyl chloroformates with aryl iodides.Electric Literature of 60770-67-4 And the article contains the following content:
This work describes Ni-catalyzed cross-electrophile coupling of benzyl chloroformate derivatives R1CH(R2)OC(O)Cl (R1 = C6H5, 4-FC6H4, 3-CH3C6H4, etc.; R2 = H, Me, butyl) with aryl iodides ArI (Ar = biphenyl-4-yl, naphthalen-1-yl, 3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-5-yl, 1-benzothiophen-5-yl, etc.) that generates a wide range of diaryl methane products R1CH(R2)Ar. The mild reaction conditions merit the C-O bond radical fragmentation of benzyl chloroformates via halide abstraction or a single electron reduction by a Ni catalyst. This work offers a new substrate type for cross-electrophile couplings. The experimental process involved the reaction of 5-Iodobenzofuran(cas: 60770-67-4).Electric Literature of 60770-67-4
