Abstract
AbstractWe report herein an atom‐economical and sustainable approach to access amidinyl radical intermediates through the anodic cleavage of N−H bonds. The resulting nitrogen‐centered radicals undergo cyclizations with (hetero)arenes, followed by rearomatization, to afford functionalized tetracyclic benzimidazoles in a highly straightforward and efficient manner. This metal‐ and reagent‐free C−H/N−H cross‐coupling reaction exhibits a broad substrate scope and proceeds with high chemoselectivity.
