Visible-light-driven photochemical Cadogan-type cyclization has been discovered. The organic D-A type photosensitizer 4CzIPN found to be an efficient mediator to transfer energy from photons to the transient intermediate that breaks the barriers of deoxygenation in Cadogan reaction and enables a mild metal-free access to carbazoles and related heterocycles. DFT calculation results indicate mildly endergonic formation of the intermediate complex of nitrobiarenes and PPh3, which corresponds with experimental findings regarding reaction temperature. The robust synthetic capacity of the photoredox Cadogan reaction systems has been demonstrated by the viable productivity of a broad range of carbazoles and related N-heterocycles with good tolerance of various functionalities.

While direct nitrene insertions into C?H bonds have become an important tool for building C?N bonds in modern organic chemistry, the generation of nitrene intermediates always requires transition metals, high temperatures, ultraviolet or laser light. We report a mild synthesis of carbazoles and related building blocks through a visible light-induced intramolecular C?H amination reaction. A striking advantage of this new method is the use of more reactive aryl sulfilimines instead of the corresponding hazardous azides. Different catalysts and divergent light sources were tested. The reaction scope is broad and the product yield is generally high. An efficient gram-scale synthesis of Clausine C demonstrates the applicability and scalability of this new method.

A metal-free deoxygenation and reductive disilylation of nitroarenes was achieved using N,N’-bis(trime-thylsilyl)-4,4’-bipyridinylidene (1) under mild and neutral reaction conditions, and a broad functional group tolerance was possible in this reaction. Mono-deoxygenation, giving a synthetically valuable N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)phe-nylhydroxylamine (7a) as a readily available and safe phenylnitrene source from nitrobenzene, and double-deoxy-genation, giving N,N-bis(trimethylsilyl)anilines 8, were easily controlled by varying the amounts of 1 and reaction temperature as well as adding dibenzothiophene (DBTP). Reaction of 2-arylnitrobenzenes with 1 resulted in the formation of the corresponding carbazoles 14 via in situ-gen-erated phenylnitrene species derived by thermolysis of N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)phenylhydroxylamines 7, followed by their subsequent intramolecular C H insertion. In addition, the intramolecular N N coupling reaction proceeded in the reduction of 2,2’-dinitrobiphenyl derivatives by 1, giving the corresponding benzo[c]cinnolines.
