Abstract

Visible-light-promoted metal- and photocatalyst-free radical cascade cyclization of cinnamamides with ?-oxocarboxylic acids is described for sustainable synthesis of diverse pharmaceutically important dihydroquinolinone scaffolds in one pot under mild conditions. The decarboxylative cascade cyclization proceeded efficiently at room temperature without the need for expensive photocatalysts such as Ir or Ru complexes, which indicates the practicability and environmentally benign nature of this protocol. Preliminary mechanistic studies reveal that the blue LED irradiation efficiently cleaves the I-O bond of the hypervalent iodine reagent PhI(O2CCOAr)2 formed through ligand exchange between iodobenzene diacetate and arylglyoxylic acid to initiate the cascade reaction. The synthetic value of this operationally simple and energy-efficient method is further demonstrated by late-stage functionalization of drug molecules in excellent yields. � 2023 American Chemical Society.
