Visible-light-induced radical isocyanide insertion protocol for the synthesis of difluoromethylated spiro[indole-3,3′-quinoline] derivatives

Abstract

Herein, we report the first protocol for visible-light-induced radical isocyanide insertion reactions between 3-(2-isocyanobenzyl)-indoles and bromodifluoroacetates or bromodifluoroacetamides. The protocol, which has good functional group tolerance and a broad substrate scope, constitutes an efficient and general route to difluoromethylated spiro[indole-3,3′-quinoline] derivatives.
