Abstract

Abstract Mediated by visible light-induced photoredox catalysis and free of other catalysts, a new and efficient synthesis of methylene-bridged bis-1, 3-dicarbonyl derivatives has been developed. A variety of N-methyl tertiaryamines and 1, 3-dicarbonyl compounds were investigated in this reaction.
