Imides are prepared conveniently by visible-light-driven oxidations of various N -alkylamides under mild conditions. The majority of the reactions proceed efficiently by using Oxone as the oxidant in the presence of a catalytic amount of KBr in H 2 O/CH 2 Cl 2 under irradiation by an 8 W white LED at room temperature. Experimental studies suggest that an imine, obtained from the substrate amide via a radical process, is the key intermediate.
