Bu3SnH-mediated 5-endo-trig radical cyclization of N-(cyclohex-1-enyl) α-chloro amides occurred with a high degree of efficiency, whereas the corresponding α-iodo congeners gave only limited quantities of the cyclization products. The cyclizing ability of α-iodo amides can be restored with Bu3SnCl as an additive.
