AI Article Synopsis

  • A new method for combining arylglycine derivatives and β-keto acids using visible light is introduced, allowing for the formation of γ-keto glycine derivatives.
  • This reaction requires no photocatalysts or additives, making it a simple and efficient process conducted at room temperature.
  • The text also discusses potential applications and suggests a possible mechanism behind the reaction.

Article Abstract

A visible-light-induced dehydrogenative/decarboxylative coupling reaction of arylglycine derivatives and β-keto acids is described. This photocatalyst- and additive-free protocol can be applied in the efficient synthesis of γ-keto glycine derivatives under ambient conditions. Further uses of this methodology and a plausible mechanism are also demonstrated.
