Abstract
A radical nitrohalogenation/cyclization of various enynes with tert-butyl nitrite has been developed that conveniently introduces useful nitro and halo groups into organic compounds. Some control experiments were performed to elucidate the mechanism. Further functional transformations proceeded well in this reaction system.

(4Z)-4-[Iodo(phenyl)methylene]-3-methyl-3-(nitromethyl)-1-tosylpyrrolidine; Typical Procedure
A mixture of the N-tosyl(2-methylprop-2-en-1-yl)(3-phenylprop-2-yn-1-yl)amine (1 equiv, 0.1 mmol), TBN (8 equiv, 0.8 mmol), KI (1 equiv, 0.1 mmol), FeSO4·7H2O (0.4 equiv, 0.04 mmol), and CH3CN (1 mL) was kept in a sealed tube at 50 °C under N2 for 6 h. When the reaction was finished, the mixture was concentrated under a vacuum and purified by flash column chromatography [silica gel, PE–EtOAc (10:1)] to give a white solid; yield: 46.3 mg (90%; Z/E = 9:1); mp 104–105 ℃.
1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 7.76 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 2 H), 7.41 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 2 H), 7.36–7.31 (m, 3 H), 7.16–7.14 (m, 2 H), 4.18 (d, J = 12.4 Hz, 1 H), 4.03 (d, J = 15.6 Hz, 1 H), 4.00 (d, J = 12.4 Hz, 1 H), 3.90 (d, J = 15.1 Hz, 1 H), 3.61 (d, J = 9.8 Hz, 1 H), 3.23 (d, J = 9.7 Hz, 1 H), 2.48 (s, 3 H), 1.10 (s, 3 H). 13C NMR (100 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 144.8, 144.3, 142.1, 131.7, 130.0, 129.1, 128.7, 128.1, 127.5, 95.1, 79.7, 61.2, 59.3, 47.0, 22.5, 21.6. HRMS (ESI): m/z for [M + H]+ calcd for C20H22IN2O4S; 513.0339; found: 513.0338.
