Abstract
Correction for ‘Copper(II) catalyzed synthesis of novel helical luminescent benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a][1,10]phenanthrolines via an intramolecular C–H amination reaction’ by Ramon Borges da Silva, et al., Org. Biomol. Chem., 2017, DOI: 10.1039/c6ob02508k.
The authors regret that there was an error in the bottom part of Fig. 5. The correct figure is shown below.

| Fig. 5 (Top) UV-Vis absorption spectra of 6a in cyclohexane (green), CH2Cl2 (blue), MeOH (red) and CH3CN (black). (Bottom) Emission spectra of 6a in cyclohexane (green), CH2Cl2 (blue), MeOH (red) and CH3CN (black). | ||
In addition, in the paragraph beginning ‘Initially, N-phenylpyridin-2-amine (4) was employed as a model compound to explore reaction conditions and to compare results with previously published studies.’ In the sentence ‘The reactions using 2-NBA and 3-NBA gave similar isolated yields of 4, but the reaction with 2-NBA was observed to be a more complex mixture of products which were, in large part, absent in the reaction with 3-NBA.’, compound number 4 should read 5. The correct sentence should read ‘The reactions using 2-NBA and 3-NBA gave similar isolated yields of 5, but the reaction with 2-NBA was observed to be a more complex mixture of products which were, in large part, absent in the reaction with 3-NBA.’
The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
