Here we present a self-made annular continuous-flow reactor that can be used in the UV/vis range in an internal numbering-up manner. As a model reaction, we chose a powerful batch-scale-limited benzoannelation method, namely, an intramolecular photodehydro-Diels-Alder (IMPDDA) reaction. The scale-up potential of this particular photochemical benchmark reaction toward the preparation of macrocylic (1,7)naphthalenophanes by variation of selected flow parameters is presented.
An efficient method for the preparation of arylnaphthalene lignans (ANLs) was developed, which is based on thePhoto-Dehydro-DIELS-ALDER(PDDA) reaction. While intermolecular PDDA reactions turned out to be inefficient, theintramolecular variant using suberic acid as tether linking two aryl propiolic esters smoothly provided naphthalenophanes. Theirradiations were performed with a previously developed annular continuous-flow reactor and UVB lamps. In this way, the naturalproducts Alashinol D, Taiwanin C, and an unnamed ANL could be prepared.
