Abstract
A
photocatalytic method for the alpha-selective hydroaminoalkylation of
cinnamate esters has been developed. The reaction involves the
regioselective addition of alpha-aminoalkyl radicals generated from
aniline derivatives or aliphatic amines to the alpha-position of
unsaturated esters. The scope of aromatic alkenes was extended to
styrenes undergoing hydroaminoalkylation with anti-Markovnikov
selectivity, which confirms the importance of the aromatic group at the
beta-position. Simple scale-up is demonstrated under continuous-flow
conditions, highlighting the practicality of the method.
