Multicatalytic dearomatization of phenols into epoxyquinols via a photooxygenation process

Abstract

A multicatalytic photooxygenation of substituted phenols in the presence of rose bengal and cesium carbonate under green LED light is reported. This transformation enabled the introduction of both atoms of singlet oxygen and led to the one-pot synthesis of epoxyquinols in a stereoselective way.
