Reduction of alkyl dihalide guests (2–5 and 7) with trialkylsilanes (R3SiH) was performed in water-soluble host 1 to investigate the effects of confinement on fast radical reactions (k≥103 m−1 s−1). High selectivity (>95 %) for mono-reduced products was observed for primary and secondary dihalide guests under mild conditions. The results highlight the importance of host–guest complexation rates to modulate the product selectivity in radical reactions.

Abstract

Reduction of alkyl dihalide guests (2–5 and 7) with trialkylsilanes (R3SiH) was performed in water-soluble host 1 to investigate the effects of confinement on fast radical reactions (k≥103 m−1 s−1). High selectivity (>95 %) for mono-reduced products was observed for primary and secondary dihalide guests under mild conditions. The results highlight the importance of host–guest complexation rates to modulate the product selectivity in radical reactions.
