The development of green and sustainable methods for effective synthesis of fine chemicals is an important goal in our society. During the last decade, visible-light photoredox catalysis has shown great promise as a method to advance these goals. As a result of its high natural abundance, benign environmental impact, cleanliness, and sustainability,[1] photocatalysis using visible light is a reliable and powerful tool.[2] In this context, there are several examples of its usefulness, including asymmetric alkylation of aldehydes,[3][2+ 2] cycloaddition of enones,[4][3+ 2] cycloaddition of aryl cyclopropyl ketones,[5] reductive dehalogenation,[3d, 6] radical addition to unsaturated bonds,[7] and coupling reactions.[8, 9] Despite these advances, oxidative reactions initiated by visible light are largely unexplored. In 2003, Zen et al. reported a visible-light photocatalytic reaction for the oxidation of sulfides into sulfoxides.[10] Later, Zhao et al. oxidized alcohols to aldehydes using visible light and dye-sensitized TiO2.[11] Recently, the groups of Blechert and Wang [12] developed a metal-free photooxidative system to achieve the oxidation of amines and alcohols, and Jiao et al. described the use of a RuII polypyridine complex and 4-methoxypyridine to promote the conversion of α-aryl halogen derivatives into α-aryl carbonyl compounds.[13]The molecular oxygen in air has been widely used as a green oxidant in synthesis.[14] Consequently, the development of visible-light photooxidative reactions using air as the oxidant is highly desirable. We recently developed a visiblelight-induced oxidation/[3+ 2] cycloaddition/oxidative aromatization sequence for dihydroisoquinoline esters and electrondeficient alkenes or alkynes to construct pyrrolo [2, 1-a] isoquinolines.[15, 16] In this sequence, a superoxide radical anion,
