AI Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on creating carbon-carbon bonds through oxidative cross-coupling, a key area in green chemistry that aims for high efficiency and mild conditions.
- A new method was developed that uses visible light to enable direct cross-coupling between N-heterocycles and aldehydes without needing a photocatalyst.
- The reaction yields good results at room temperature and can be easily scaled up for larger production.
Article Abstract
Constructing carbon-carbon bonds through oxidative cross-coupling between two hydrocarbon compounds is regarded as a foundational issue in green chemistry. High atom-economy and mild conditions are long term pursued goals in this field. Herein, we developed a visible-light mediated direct cross-coupling between N-heterocycles and aldehydes without the requirement of a photocatalyst. Several N-heterocycles afforded the acylation products with aromatic or aliphatic aldehydes in good yields. The reaction can be conducted under room temperature and easily scaled up.
