CO₂/Photoredox-Cocatalyzed Tandem Oxidative Cyclization of α‑Bromo Ketones and Amines To Construct Substituted Oxazoles

CO₂/photoredox-cocatalyzed tandem oxidative cyclization of α-bromo ketones and amines for the preparation of substituted oxazoles has been achieved. The avoidance of using both transition-metal catalysts and peroxides makes this method more sustainable and renewable.
