The direct reductive amination of aromatic aldehydes has been realized using a photocatalyst under visible light irradiation. The single electron oxidation of an in situ formed aminal species generates the putative α-amino radical that eventually delivers the reductive amination product. This method is operationally simple, highly selective, and functional group tolerant, which allows the direct synthesis
使用光催化剂在可见光照射下已经实现了芳族醛的直接还原胺化。原位形成的缩醛胺物种的单电子氧化产生推定的α-氨基自由基,最终传递还原性胺化产物。该方法操作简单,高度选择性且具有官能团耐受性,可通过独特的机理途径直接合成苄基胺。
