Heterogeneous g-C3N4/NaI Dual Catalytic Difunctionalization of Alkenes with Heteroarenes and Methyl Carbazate under Visible Light

Herein, a photoinduced heterogeneous catalytic system merging g-C3N4 and NaI has been established for the difunctionalization of alkenes in conjunction with heteroarenes and methyl carbazate. This approach is notable for its broad substrate tolerance, encompassing a wide range of alkenes and heteroarenes and leading to the formation of the corresponding esters with moderate to good yields. Additionally, the scalability of the synthetic process and the versatility of the product transformations have been illustrated, highlighting its potential for practical application in organic synthesis.
