Cooperative Photoredox and N-Heterocyclic Carbene-Catalyzed Formal C-H Acylation of Cyclopropanes via Deconstruction-Reconstruction Strategy

Cyclopropanes are ubiquitous and key structural motifs in commercially available drugs and bioactive molecules. Herein, we present regio-selective acylation of aryl cyclopropanes with cooperative photoredox and N-heterocyclic carbene catalysis. This...
