Abstract
- A new free carbon radical was obtained in a microwave‐assisted solvothermal reaction of the primary amine (1‐methyl‐1H‐benzo[d]imidazol‐2‐yl)methanamine with FeCl3⋅6 H2O in methanol at 140 °C. Through a combination of crystallography and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, the reaction process was studied. The longest domino reaction includes 14 steps and forms up to 12 new covalent bonds (9 C−N and 3 C−C bonds) and 3 five‐membered heterocycles. For the first time, the homolytic cleavage of a C−O bond was used to synthesize a triarylmethyl radical. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
