A coupled catalysis was performed using a riboflavin-derived organocatalyst and molecular iodine, which successfully promoted the aerobic oxidation of thiols to disulfides under metal-free mild conditions. The activation of molecular oxygen occurred smoothly at room temperature through the transfer of electrons from the iodine catalysis to the biomimetic flavin catalysis, which formed the basis of the green oxidative synthesis of disulfides from thiols.

<p>Organophotocatalytic C─H bond functionalization has attracted lot of attention in the past several years due to the possibility of catalysing reactions in a metal-free environment. Continuing on these lines, we repot herein an organophotoredox catalyzed C─H functionalization of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines and related heterocycles with malonates under mild conditions providing excellent yields of the products at room temperature. Although, C─3 functionalization of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines are known, this is the first report involving malonates as coupling partners leading to the synthesis of a range of functionalized products including Zolpidem, a sedative-hypnotic medicine. </p>
