The construction of C?N bonds by free radical reactions represents a powerful synthetic approach for direct C?H amidations of arenes or heteroarenes. Developing efficient and more environmentally friendly synthetic methods for C?H amidation reactions remains highly desirable. Herein, metal-free electrochemical oxidative dehydrogenative C?H amidations of heteroarenes with N-alkylsulfonamides have been accomplished. The catalyst- and chemical-oxidant-free C?H amidation features an ample scope and employs electricity as the green and sole oxidant. A variety of heteroarenes, including indoles, pyrroles, benzofuran and benzothiophene, thereby underwent this C(sp2)?H nitrogenation. Cyclic voltammetry studies and control experiments provided evidence for nitrogen-centered radicals being directly generated under metal-free electrocatalysis.
