A mild and efficient protocol for the intramolecular aromatic C-H oxygenation of 2-biphenylcarboxylic acids has been achieved via iron photocatalysis. The 2-biphenylcarboxylic acids with a diverse array of substituents at both phenyl rings could furnish the oxygenation products in good to excellent yields. We speculate that the aryl carboxylate-iron(III) complexes should generate the aroyloxy radicals and iron(II) upon visible light irradiation.
通过铁光催化实现了温和高效的 2-联苯羧酸分子内芳香 C-H 氧化反应。具有不同取代基的 2-联苯羧酸在两个苯环上都能以良好到优异的收率得到氧化产物。我们推测在可见光照射下,芳基羧酸盐-铁(III)配合物应该生成酰氧基自由基和铁(II)。
