Photoinduced dearomative radical spirocyclization/oximation of nonactivated arenes: access to phosphorylated spirocyclic oximes with pH-responsive fluorescence and antitumor properties

Dearomative radical ipso-spirocyclization has emerged as a powerful strategy for synthesis of valuable three-dimensional spirocyclic compounds from aromatic feedstocks, however the transformations are predominantly realized with activated arenes. Herein, a...
