Oxidative [4+2] annulation of styrenes with alkynes under external-oxidant-free conditions
A sequence of a Diels–Alder reaction and oxidation is a powerful route to valuable aromatic compounds. Here, the authors report a more atom-economical oxidant-free strategy involving a Diels–Alder with H2 evolution under noble-metal-free photoredox conditions.
