Abstract
An iron-catalyzed direct aerobic α,β-dehydrogenation of carbonyls has been reported. The combination of tert-butyl nitrite and N-hydroxyphthalimide worked as the organo cocatalyst system; thus, no extra transition metal reagents are required. A large variety of lactams and flavanones as well as lactone and thiochromen-4-one could be produced via this method in high yields.
