Visible-Light-Induced Recyclable g-C₃N₄ Catalyzed C–H Hydroxylation of Quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones

Abstract

A visible-light-promoted hydroxylation of quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones using recyclable graphitic carbon nitride (g-C₃N₄) as a heterogeneous photocatalyst has been developed. This protocol enables the selective synthesis of various hydroxyl-containing quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones in good to excellent yields under an ambient air atmosphere. Importantly, this heterogeneous catalyst can be used at least six times without significant loss of activity.

Key words

visible light - quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones - hydroxylation - g-C₃N₄ - heterogeneous photocatalysts
