Abstract

Correction for ‘Photocatalyzed redox-neutral decarboxylative alkylation of heteroaryl methanamines’ by Pengfei Niu et al., Green Chem., 2021, 23, 774–779, DOI: 10.1039/D0GC04094K.


The authors regret that the structure of the recovered compound in Scheme 4 (in the lower right corner, in green) and the subsequent discussion was incorrect in the originally published paper. The recovered compound is phthalimide, not NHPI. The corrected Scheme 4 is displayed below.

Scheme 4 Scale-up experiments and further deprotection of product 3ba.

The following sentences within the main manuscript should refer to phthalimide instead of NHPI, and should read as follows:

On page 774: “The reaction can be scaled up and phthalimide can be recovered.”

On page 775: “Furthermore, we found that phthalimide in this transformation can be recovered in a high yield easily during the column chromatography isolation process (Scheme 4, lower part).”

On page 776: “At the same time, phthalimide was conveniently recovered in 84% yield during the column chromatography isolation process (Scheme 4, lower part)”

On page 777: “The success of the scale-up experiment, phthalimide recovery and in situ activating protocol further enhances the practical value of the reaction.”

The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
