Photo-induced 1,2-thiohydroxylation of maleimide involving disulfide and singlet oxygen

Abstract

A visible light-driven di-functionalization of maleimide with disulfide and in situ-generated singlet oxygen offers selective 1,2-thiohydroxylation under additive-free conditions. Here the disulfide plays the dual role of photosensitizer and the coupling reagent. Notably, the hydroxyl functionality originates from the in situ generated singlet oxygen followed by HAT from H2O (moisture).
