In presence of K2S2O8 and HOAc, propargyl alcohols can go oxidative radical cyclizations to give a pool of anthranils. Excellent chemoselectivity was seen, and the synthesized anthranils can be employed as N-nucleophiles in various transformations.

1-(2-Bromobenzyl)-2-alkanesulfonylpyrroles (1c, 1d) and 1-(4-bromobutyl)-2-methylsulfonfylpyrrols (8) undergo oxidative radical cyclization with partial or complete reductive desulfonylation to the pyrrolizidine derivatives 5 and 9 by an AIBN initiated reaction with tri-n-butyltin hydride. These cyclizations are suggested to proceed via a pseudo SRN1 process involving radical addition to the α position of the pyrrole nucleus not bearing the sulfonyl group. Reductive removal of the alkylsulfonyl moiety is proposed to occur in a second process after completion of the oxidative radical cyclization. The site of the radical addition is supported by deuterium labelling studies. Consistent with the timing of the loss of the sulonyl group is that 2-alkysulfonylpyrroles 11 are reductively desulfonylated under the same conditions that effect the oxidative radical cyclizations.

Anellated pyrrolidines 19–22 were obtained through a diastereoselective self-terminating, oxidative radical cyclization cascade by treating the cis-cyclopentyl substituted alkynyl amines 14–18 with photochemically generated nitrate radicals, NO3●. A fast and modular access to the starting materials 14–18 was developed, which readily enables variation of the substitution pattern at the pyrrolidine ring formed upon radical cyclization. The diastereoselectivity of this reaction sequence was found to be strongly influenced by the nature of the substituents at the nitrogen atom. This shows that a complex interplay of both steric and stereoelectronic effects orchestrates the stereoselectivity of 5-exo radical cyclizations of highly substituted radicals.

Abstract Radical cyclizations are essential reactions in the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites and the chemical synthesis of societally valuable molecules. In this review, we highlight the general mechanisms utilized in biocatalytic radical cyclizations. We specifically highlight cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s) involved in the biosynthesis of mycocyclosin and vancomycin, non-heme iron- and α-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases (Fe/αKGDs) used in the biosynthesis of kainic acid, scopolamine, and isopenicillin N, and radical S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) enzymes that facilitate the biosynthesis of oxetanocin A, menaquinone, and F420. Beyond natural mechanisms, we also examine repurposed flavin-dependent ‘ene’-reductases (ERED) for non-natural radical cyclization. Overall, these general mechanisms underscore the opportunity for enzymes to augment and enhance the synthesis of complex molecules using radical mechanisms.

Radical cyclization of (1E,5Z)-1-iodoundeca-1,5,10-triene with triphenyltin hydride provides one acyclic, one monocyclic, two bicyclic and four tricyclic products. At low concentration (0.002 M), the title tricycloundecane products resulting from triple cyclization predominate, but the stereoselectivity is low. Cyclization of (1E,5Z)-1-iodo-8,8-bis( phenylsulfonyl )undeca-1,5,10-triene followed by reductive desulfonylation provides a similar ratio of products to the parent. The results show that this class of triple cyclization occurs well, but the level of stereoselectivity must be raised for it to become synthetically useful.
