Cyanamide functionalized carbon nitride powder is reported as a photocatalyst for direct Minisci-type coupling of heteroarenes with ethers, alcs., and amides using atm. oxygen as the oxidant at room temperature This mild protocol displays broad substrate scope, good functional group tolerance and the catalyst can be easily isolated and reused for several cycles. It thereby addresses the two major limitations of previously reported photoredox-mediated Minisci reactions: (i) use of expensive and potentially harmful non-recyclable photocatalysts, and (ii) requirement of a stoichiometric amount of strong chem. oxidant. Finally, using platinum as a co-catalyst with the carbon nitride allows this light-mediated reaction to generate two value-added products under an anaerobic atm. – functionalized heteroarenes and H2 fuel.
