Visible light photocatalysis of 6π heterocyclization

Photo-mediated 6π cyclization is a valuable method for the formation of fused heterocyclic systems. Here we demonstrate that irradiation of cyclic 2-aryloxyketones with blue LED light in the presence of an Ir(III) complex leads to efficient and high yielding arylation across a panoply of substrates...
