Formal Reductive Amination of Carboxylic Acids via Iron-Catalyzed Photoredox Decarboxylative α-Aminomethylation.

Here we report an iron-catalyzed photocatalytic protocol utilizing ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) for efficient decarboxylative reductive amination to synthesize tertiary alkylamines. The method employs readily available carboxylic acids and…
