the utilization of light energy for the activation of organic substrates. Here, we demonstrate the catalytic application of ligand-to-metal charge-transfer (LMCT) excitation of cerium alkoxide complexes for the facile activation of alkanes utilizing abundant and inexpensive cerium trichloride as the catalyst. As demonstrated by cerium-catalyzed C-H amination and alkylation of hydrocarbons, this reaction

One for all: We report the sp3 C−H imination of simple alkanes and functionalized molecules, which provides primaryamines on workup. Our method shows good site selectivity and functional group tolerance, which we have used for the synthesis of complex amines. We characterize a unique mechanism involving radical rebound to imine.
