An oxidative cross-dehydrogenative-coupling reaction in water using molecular oxygen as the oxidant: vanadium catalyzed indolation of tetrahydroisoquinolines
A cross dehydrogenative coupling reaction of aryl ketones with N-hydroxyphthalimide was realized. The reactions afforded a clean and facile access to diverse N-alkoxyphthalimide derivatives in high yields (up to 99%).
Herein, we report a mild and efficient hydroxymethylation of quinolines via an iron promoted cross-dehydrogenative coupling reaction under external acid free conditions.
Eosin Y dye has been successfully embedded into a nanoporous network EY-POPs through a bottom-up strategy. The polymers could be used as highly effective and reusable heterogeneous organo-photocatalyst for the dehydrogenative coupling reaction.
