Near-Infrared-Light-Induced Iron(I) Dimer Enabled Abstraction of Ester Group from Cycloketone Oxime Esters
Photoinduced dimeric metal complexes have been extensively utilized in halogen atom transfer (XAT) reactions. In this study, we successfully achieved the abstraction of ester group from cyclobutanone oxime esters via iron(I)-dimer catalysis under near-infrared (NIR) light (730 nm) excitation, enabling the efficient synthesis of cyanoalkylated alkenes, quinazolinones, and 3,3-disubstituted oxindoles. Mechanistic investigations confirmed the NIR-induced functional group abstraction process.
