Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The generation of carbocation has required the use of strong acids, which lowered functional group compatibility and limited the application to synthesis of pharmaceutical drugs. In this research, a new approach to catalytic generation of carbocation from carboxylic acid derivatives and alkenes by a visible light-mediated organophotoredox catalysis has been provided. In our protocols, single electron transfer by a photoredox catalyst was utilized for carbocation generation. This strong acid-free protocol could be applied to functionalization of pharmaceutical drugs and natural products.
