Visible light-promoted self-coupling of N-chloramines at room temperature: A metal-free access to substituted amides
摘要:
An efficient protocol to synthesize substituted amides via self-coupling of N-chlorobenzylamines has been developed under visible light-promoted mild condition. Both the electron-deficient and electron-rich benzylamines undergo self-coupling very readily to produce the amide linkage under given reaction conditions.
