Transition-metal-catalyzed C?N bond-forming reactions have emerged as fundamental and powerful tools to construct arylamines, a common structure found in drug agents, natural products, and fine chemicals. Reported herein is an alternative access to heteroarylamine via radical?radical cross-coupling pathway, powered by visible light catalysis without any aid of external oxidant and reductant. Only by visible light irradiation of a photocatalyst, such as a metal-free photocatalyst, does the cascade single-electron transfer event for amines and heteroaryl nitriles occur, demonstrated by steady-state and transient spectroscopic studies, resulting in an amine radical cation and aryl radical anion in situ for C?N bond formation. The metal-free and redox economic nature, high efficiency, and site-selectivity of C?N cross-coupling of a range of available amines, hydroxylamines, and hydrazines with heteroaryl nitriles make this protocol promising in both academic and industrial settings.

TEMPO-Mediated oxidation of hydroxylamines (=hydroxyamines) and alkoxyamines to the corresponding oxime derivatives is reported (TEMPO=2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-yloxy radical; Scheme 2). These environmentally benign oxidations proceed in good to excellent yields (Table 1). For alkoxyamines, oxidation to the corresponding oxime ethers can be performed by using dioxygen as a terminal oxidant in the presence of 5-10 mol-% of TEMPO or 4-substituted derivatives thereof as a catalyst (Scheme 3 and Table 2). Importantly, benzyl bromides can directly be transformed to oxime ethers via in situ alkoxyamine formation by a nucleophilic substitution followed by TEMPO-mediated oxidation (Scheme 4 and Table 3).
