Abstract

Development of new synthetic pathways to these compounds has thus recently attracted some attention from organic chemists, broadening the scope of substrates classically obtained by Friedländer-type methods or Friedel–Crafts cyclisations. 3 These new routes include, for instance, multi-component reactions, 4 palladium chemistry or rhodium catalysis. 5 In contrast, radical chemistry has not been considered in this context. 6 This is, in part, a ...
