Zhang, Sheng published the artcileRegioselective umpolung addition of dicyanobenzene to α,β-unsaturated alkenes enabled by electrochemical reduction, Computed Properties of 91-15-6, the main research area is dicyanobenzene unsaturated alkene regioselective electrochem reduction.
An umpolung addition of dicyanobenzene to α,β-unsaturated alkenes has been developed using an electroreductive strategy. This electrochem. protocol is well compatible with a broad range of conventionally challenging substrates, including α,β-unsaturated esters, nitriles and trisubstituted enones. Moreover, good to excellent regioselectivities are observed in the reaction of cinnamates with dicyanobenzene. Synthetic utility of this electrochem. approach is further demonstrated by direct late-stage functionalization of (S)-verbenone and 16-dehydropregnenolone acetate.
