N-Substituted 3(10H)-Acridones as Visible-Light, Water-Soluble Photocatalysts: Aerobic Oxidative Hydroxylation of Arylboronic Acids
摘要:
We disclosed a novel water-soluble photocatalyst that could promote aerobic oxidative hydroxylation of arylboronic acids to furnish phenols in excellent yields. This transformation uses visible-light irradiation under environmentally friendly conditions, that is, water-soluble catalyst, metal-free, green oxidant, room temperature.
