Merging visible-light photoredox and copper catalysis in catalytic aerobic oxidation of amines to nitriles

Abstract

Visible-light-initiated homogeneous oxidative synthesis of nitriles from amines was accomplished through a combined use of photoredox and copper catalysis. This transformation was performed at room temperature with O2 as the oxidant.
