Electrochemical\nC–H Alkylation of Azauracils\nUsing <i>N</i>‑(Acyloxy)phthalimides

We present an electrochemical alkylation of azauracils\nusing <i>N</i>-(acyloxy)phthalimides (NHPI esters) as readily\navailable\nalkyl radical progenitors under metal- and additive-free conditions.\nSeveral azauracils are shown to undergo alkylation with an array of\nNHPI esters (1°, 2°, 3°, and sterically congested),\nproviding the desired products in good to excellent yields. This operationally\nsimple method is robust, scalable, and suitable for both batch and\nflow setups.
