Experimental study demonstrates visible-light-driven C-C bond cleavage and amination of unstrained cycloalkanols via cerium(III) catalysis, suggesting a new path for ring functionalization.
A general strategy for the cleavage and amination of C-C bonds of cycloalkanols has been achieved through visible-light-induced photoredox catalysis utilizing a cerium(III) chloride complex. This operationally simple methodology has been successfully applied to a wide array of unstrained cyclic alcohols, and represents the first example of catalytic C-C bond cleavage and functionalization of unstrained secondary cycloalkanols.
