NHC Catalysis for Umpolung Pyridinium Alkylation via Deoxy‐Breslow Intermediates

Abstract: Umpolung N‐heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis of non‐aldehyde substrates offers new pathways for C−C bond formation, but has proven challenging to develop in terms of viable substrate classes. Here, we demonstrate that pyridinium ions can undergo NHC addition and subsequent intramolecular C−C bond formation through a deoxy‐Breslow intermediate. The alkylation demonstrates, for the first time, that deoxy‐Breslow intermediates are viable for catalytic umpolung of areniums.
