ABSTRACT

Mechanistic evaluations and comparison of two important aerobic catalytic oxidation processes, aerobic copper catalysis and photoredox catalysis, are performed. Interesting and distinct catalytic behaviors were observed for a common reaction of iodolactonization of alkenoic acids. Namely, the aerobic copper catalysis requires the formation of a copper carboxylate, whereas the aerobic photoredox catalysis requires the addition of proton sources to proceed to completion. Furthermore, the iodolactone products obtained from these catalytic processes are extensively derivatized to a number of functionalized lactones, including aryl lactones generated from the nickel-catalyzed reductive coupling with aryl halides.
