Abstract
The development of practical synthetic protocols integrating novel technologies may enable rapid and broad exploration of chemical space in medicinal chemistry campaigns. Cross-electrophile coupling (XEC) allows the diversification of an aromatic core with alkyl halides to increase the sp3 character. Herein, we apply two alternative approaches via either photo- or electro-catalyzed XEC and showcase their complementarity to access novel tedizolid analogs. The parallel photochemical and electrochemical reactors with high light intensity and constant voltage respectively were chosen to yield good conversions, which allowed access to a wide range of derivatives in a much shorter time frame.
