Abstract

A photoredox-catalyzed 1,2-amidoheteroarylation of unactivated alkenes with O-acyl hydroxylamine derivatives and heterocycles is presented. A range of heterocycles, including quinoxaline-2(1H)-ones, azauracils, chromones, and quinolones, are capable for this process, allowing the direct synthesis of valuable heteroarylethylamine derivatives. Structurally diverse reaction substrates, including drug-based scaffolds, were successfully applied, demonstrating the practicality of this method.
