Article Synopsis
  • The text discusses a method for adding two functional groups to 1,3-dienes using a photoinduced copper catalyst.
  • This process involves generating a selenium atom radical through visible light, which reacts to form an allyl radical intermediate.
  • The allyl radical can then quickly isomerize and undergo copper-catalyzed reactions with different nucleophiles, allowing for selective functionalization.

Described herein is a copper-catalyzed efficient oxidative dearomatized functionalization of indoles by using alcohols as the nucleophiles. Various 3-alkoxy-2-oxindoles were accessible with good isolated yields. The synthetic potential applications are demonstrated by the large-scale reaction, as well as the derivatization of the desired 3-alkoxy substituted-2-oxindole products.
