Ring closure reactions O 0130 DOI: 10.1002/chin.201648027 A General CuCl2-Promoted Alkene Aminochlorination Reaction. — The given 48- 027 aminochlorination reaction tolerates a wide variety of substrates including amides, ureas, and urethanes bearing alkene, alkyne, or allene substituents. Even the N-aryl group can be replaced by a sulfonamide. Mechanistic considerations suggest that the transformation proceeds via a radical-type process and that cupric chloride serves as both the oxidant to generate the amidyl radical as well as the chloride source. — (LI, S.-Q.; XIONG, P.; ZHU, L.; QIAN, X.-Y.; XU*, H.-C.; Eur.
