A variety of unactivated N-benzyl acrylamides underwent dearomative ipso-cyclization induced by sulfur-centered radicals in the presence of ceric ammonium nitrate as the oxidant to produce azaspirocycles in good yields. This represents the first report on ipso-dearomatization of N-benzyl acrylamides without substituents at the para-position of the aromatic ring. The reaction conditions are also applicable to substrates with substituents at the para-position such as F, NO2, OMe, OH, and OAc.
A variety of acrylamides holding an unactivated N-benzyl group underwent dearomative ipso-cyclizationinduced by sulfur-centered radicals (SCN/ SCF3/ SO2Ar) in the presence of ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) as theoxidant to furnish azaspirocycles in good yields. This is the firstreport on ipso-dearomatization of N-benzyl acrylamides that proceeds without a substituent at the para-position of the aromatic ring. The developed conditionsare also found to be suitable for substrates holding substituentssuch as F, NO2, OMe, OH, and OAc at the para-position. The reaction features water as the source of oxygen, iscompatible with a variety of functional groups, and proceeds in ashort time.
