With the support of the Organic Dynamics Program in the Chemistry Division, Professor Paul Floreancig, of the Department of Chemistry at the University of Pittsburgh, has begun a program in which electron transfer initiated carbon-carbon sigma-bond activation serves to trigger new synthetic transformations. Homobenzylic ethers and amides are used as the starting materials for electron transfer initiated cyclization (ETIC) reactions. In these reactions, photoinitiated single electron oxidation of the substrates form radical cation intermediates that undergo a facile displacement of a benzyl radical by pendent nucleophiles. The ultimate objective of the projects described in the proposal is to advance the ETIC method to a sufficient extent that it can serve as a method for efficient syntheses of complex natural projects and other medicinally and structurally important compounds.Professor Paul Floreancig, of the Department of Chemistry at the University of Pittsburgh, with the support of the Organic Dynamics Program, will establish new synthetic methodology and plans to develop applications of the chemistry, which minimizes impact to the environment and uses ETIC in the synthesis of acylaminals. This substrate will allow increased understanding of the structurally intriguing anticancer agent, pederin, which is isolated from South Pacific sponges.

在化学系有机动力学计划的支持下，匹兹堡大学化学系的Paul Floreancig教授开始了一项计划，其中电子转移引发的碳-碳σ键活化用于引发新的合成转化。高苄基醚和酰胺被用作电子转移引发的环化（ETIC）反应的起始材料。在这些反应中，底物的光引发单电子氧化形成自由基阳离子中间体，该中间体通过侧基亲核试剂容易地置换苄基。该提案中描述的项目的最终目标是将ETIC方法推进到足够的程度，使其能够作为一种有效合成复杂天然项目和其他医学和结构重要化合物的方法。匹兹堡大学化学系的Paul Floreancig教授在有机动力学计划的支持下，将建立新的合成方法，并计划开发化学的应用，最大限度地减少对环境的影响，并将ETIC用于合成酰胺。这种基质将使人们对从南太平洋海绵中分离出来的结构有趣的抗癌剂pederin有更多的了解。
