Scalable Synthesis of Piperazines Enabled by Visible-Light Irradiation and Aluminum Organometallics.

ABSTRACT: The development of more active C-H oxidation catalysts has inspired a rapid, scalable, and stereoselective assembly of multifunctional piperazines through a [3+3] coupling of azomethine ylides. A combination of visible-light irradiation and aluminum organometallics is essential to promote this transformation, which introduces visible-light photochemistry of main-group organometallics and sets the basis for new and promising catalysts.
