Eosin Y-catalyzed photooxidation of triarylphosphines under visible light irradiation and aerobic conditions†
Abstract
We report herein a novel method for Eosin Y-catalyzed photooxidation of triarylphosphines under visible light irradiation and aerobic conditions. This new approach employed visible light as the energy source and air as the oxidant, showing great advantages in environmental benignness and operational easiness with a wide functional group tolerance.
