Photocatalytic Hydrogen-Evolving Cross-Coupling of Arenes with Primary Amines
摘要:
Herein, we described a cooperative catalyst system consisting of an acridinium photoredox catalyst and a cobalt-based proton-reduction catalyst that is effective for the C-H amination of arenes with concomitant generation of hydrogen. This oxidant free method allows a variety of amines with diverse functional groups to be converted to aromatic amines. Additionally, this protocol can also be extended to hydrolytically unstable benzophenone imines.
