Abstract
The mechanisms for the Csp(3)-H functionalization of ethyl 2-(methyl(p-tolyl)amino)acetate have been investigated using DFT method at the M06-2X/6-31+G(d, p) level, and the SMD model was applied to simulate the solvent effect. The computational results show that the Csp3-H functionalization has four possible paths to generate intermediate radical. Then addition reaction happens between the radical and O-2 molecule. Finally, the addition product can convert into 1,5-dimethylindoline-2,3-dione via two different paths. The results could provide valuable insights into these types of interactions and related ones.
