N-phenyl phenothiazine is one of the most reducing photoredox catalysts. Its synthesis commonly requires transition metal catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. Here we show the syntheses of four aryl phenothiazines via a benzyne route, including a multi-gram scale synthesis of N-phenyl phenothiazine. While yields are modest, the simplicity, low cost, and lack of requirement for cross-coupling catalyst in this synthesis will be attractive to users of this photocatalyst.

: Transition metal catalyzed cross-coupling reactions have always been very important in synthetic organic chemistry due to their versatility in forming all sorts of carbon-carbon and carbon-hetero atom bonds. Incorporation of ultrasound assistance to these protocols resulted in milder reaction conditions, faster reaction rates, etc. This review focuses on the contributions made by ultrasound-assisted protocols towards transition metal catalyzed crosscoupling reactions.

The first examples of early-transition-metal-catalyzed hydroaminoalkylation reactions of allenes are reported. Initial studies performed with secondary aminoallenes led to the identification of a suitable titanium catalyst and revealed that under the reaction conditions, the initially formed hydroaminoalkylation products undergo an unexpected titanium-catalyzed rearrangement to form the thermodynamically more stable allylamines. The assumption that this rearrangement involves a reactive allylic cation intermediate provides a simple explanation of the fact that no successful early-transition-metal-catalyzed hydroaminoalkylations of allenes have previously been reported. As a result of the generation of the corresponding cation, the titanium-catalyzed intermolecular hydroaminoalkylation of propa-1,2-diene unexpectedly gives an aminocyclopentane product formed by incorporation of two equivalents of propa-1,2-diene.
