Article Synopsis
- Photocyclisation reactions provide a useful method for creating complex polycyclic structures, especially in natural product synthesis, with the [4 + 2] reaction being less explored than its [2 + 2] counterpart.
- This study introduced the rapid assembly of a -type scaffold using an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction on a dehydrosecodine-type intermediate, achieving up to 77% yield under mild conditions via a micro-flow system.
- The research highlights the direct UV-LED activation of the DHP moiety, allowing for efficient [4 + 2] and [2 + 2] cyclisations without needing external photocatalysts, thus showcasing a novel approach to exploiting the reactivity of polyuns
