Title: Cation Radical-Accelerated Nucleophilic Aromatic Substitution for Amination of Alkoxyarenes. Cord-id: cv7r6dr6 Document date: 2020_6_2
ID: cv7r6dr6
Snippet: Nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) is a common method for arene functionalization; however, reactions of this type are typically limited to electron-deficient aromatic halides. Herein, we describe a mild, metal-free, cation-radical accelerated nucleophilic aromatic substitution (CRA-SNAr) using a potent, highly oxidizing acridinium photoredox catalyst. Selective substitution of arene C-O bonds on a wide array of aryl ether substrates was shown with a variety of primary amine nucleophiles.

Mechanistic evidence is also presented that supports the proposed CRA-SNAr pathway.
