Abstract:Herein, we describe a novel photoinduced iron-catalyzed strategy for multicomponent C−H alkylation of in situ generated imines. By utilizing the alkyl radicals generated through iron-mediated photocatalytic C−H activation, the imines formed in situ are further subjected to addition reactions, resulting in the synthesis of various secondary and tertiary amine products. This method is simple to operate and does not require additional oxidants. It is applicable to inert alkane substrates such as cyclic alkanes, c… Show more
