Visible light mediated heterocycle functionalization via a geometrically interrupted [2+2] cycloaddition

The [2+2] photocycloaddition is the most valuable and intensively investigated photochemical process. Here we demonstrate that irradiation of N‐acryloyl heterocycles with blue LED light (440 nm) in the presence of an Ir(III) complex leads to efficient and high yielding fused γ‐lactam formation acros...
