Cyclizing Radical Carboiodination, Carbotelluration, and Carboaminoxylation of Aryl Amines

Abstract Radical carboiodination of various aryl amines is reported. Aryl diazonium salts, generated in situ from the corresponding aryl amines, are reacted with Bu 4 NI to provide the corresponding aryl radicals which undergo 5‐exo or 6‐exo cyclization. Iodine abstraction eventually affords the carboiodinated products in good to excellent yields. If TEMPO is added, the cascade provides the cyclized carboaminoxylation products. Running the reaction in the presence of PhTeTePh affords the phenyltellurated cyclized products.
