Abstract

AbstractA transition-metal-free visible-light photoredox-catalyzed decarboxylative alkylation of the benzylic C(sp3)–H bonds of N-aryltetrahydroisoquinolines is reported. The method tolerates various functional groups and proceeds smoothly without requiring a stoichiometric oxidant. A preliminary mechanistic study indicated that a radical process is involved in the reaction.
