Visible-Light-Driven C–H Arylation of Aminoquinones with Diaryliodonium Salts

Abstract A visible-light-driven C–H arylation of 2-amino-1,4-naphthoquinones with diaryliodonium salts has been developed using 10-phenylphenothiazine (PTH) as a photocatalyst. Mechanistic studies reveal that aminoquinone serves both as the substrate and as an electron shuttle in...
