Research output: Contribution to journalComment/debate

Abstract

In this issue of Chem Catalysis, Liang et al. report an efficient electrochemical cyclization reaction of alkenes and amides to produce oxazolines with broad substrate scopes and good selectivities. A chloronium species generated by the chloride-mediated redox catalysis is proposed as a key intermediate.
