Visible Light-Induced Radical Rearrangement to Construct C–C Bonds via an Intramolecular Aryl Migration/Desulfonylation Process

Abstract

A highly efficient intramolecular selective aryl migration/desulfonylation of 2-bromo-N-aryl-N-(arenesulfonyl)amide via visible light-induced photoredox catalysis has been accomplished. This approach allows for the construction of a variety of multisubstituted N,2-diarylacetamide under mild reaction conditions.
