Photoinduced Copper‐Catalyzed C−H Arylation at Room Temperature

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Room-temperature azole C-H arylations were accomplished with inexpensive copper(I) compounds by means of photoinduced catalysis. The expedient copper catalysis set the stage for site-selective C-H arylations of non-aromatic oxazolines under mild reaction conditions, and provides step-economical access to the alkaloid natural products balsoxin and texamine.
