A mild, environmentally friendly, and regioselective acylation of heterocycles with inexpensive carboxylic acids is reported via photoredox catalysis. The strategy is highlighted with good functional group tolerance and substrate scope which could rapidly realize the acylation of various heterocyclic compounds.
protocol for direct C–H alkylation and acylation of N-heterocycles, using readily accessible carboxylic acids as radical precursors under visible-light irradiation without a photocatalyst and an additional acid additive, has been developed. This protocol provides expedient access to substituted N-heterocycles under mild and metal-free conditions. Mechanistic experiments indicate that this reaction proceeds

A practical method for the synthesis of 6-aroyl phenanthridine derivatives by Fe-catalyzed oxidative radicalcyclization of 2-isocyanobiphenyls with benzylic alcohols is described. In addition, this cyclization could be occurred by using toluene as aroyl source. The procedure tolerates various functional groups under simple conditions. A single-electron-transfer pathway is proposed according to mechanistic

Acylation of electron-deficient heteroaromatic compounds has been developed using visible light. α-Ketoacids have been used as an efficient source of acyl radicals under photoredox conditions. The in situ generated acyl radicals from α-ketoacids have been coupled to a wide variety of electron-deficient heteroaromatic compounds in a Minisci type reaction. This method would be attractive to access biologically
Selective C(sp<sup>3</sup>)–H activation of simple alkanes: visible light-induced metal-free synthesis of phenanthridines with H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> as a sustainable oxidant
A visible light-induced metal-free C(sp3)–H phenanthridinylation of simple alkanes with isonitrile is developed with H2O2 as a terminal sustainable oxidant.
