PHOTOCATALYTIC REACTION OF 4-CYANOPYRIDINE WITH TERTIARY AMINES
Abstract
The reaction of 4-cyanopyridine with tertiary aliphatic amines photocatalyzed by fac-tris[2-phenylpyridinato-C2,N]iridium(III) complex
was studied. The reactions led to arylation of the α-C–H bond of the amine to form the corresponding pyridin-4-yl derivatives along with
unsubstituted pyridine.
