Published: Aug. 27, 2021

A reagent-controlled stereodivergent carbocyclisation of aryl aldimine-derived, photocatalytically generated, α-amino radicals possessing adjacent conjugated alkenes, affording either bicyclic or tetracyclic products, is described. Under net reductive conditions using commercial Hantzsch ester, the radical species underwent a single stereoselective cyclisation to give trans-configured amino-indane structures in good yield, whereas substituted ester as milder reductant afforded cis-fused tetrahydroquinoline frameworks, resulting from two consecutive cyclisations. Judicious choice reaction allowed libraries both and dual products be synthesised with high selectivity, notable predictability, good-to-excellent yields. Computational analysis employing DFT revealed pathway mechanistic rationale behind this finely balanced yet readily controlled photocatalytic system.
