Visible-light-promoted azidation/arylation of unactivated alkenes with Togni-N<sub>3</sub><i>via</i> electron donor–acceptor complexes
A visible-light-promoted azidation/arylation of unactivated alkenes with Togni-N<sub>3</sub> has been achieved, leading to a series of azidated pyrrolo[1,2-<i>a</i>]indoles under photocatalyst-free conditions. Notably, an EDA complex derived from the electron-rich indole derivatives and Togni-N<sub>3</sub> served as the key intermediate in this reaction.
