Abstract
A photocatalyzed ortho‐alkylation of pyridine N‐oxide with ynamides and arylacetylenes has been developed, which yields a series of α‐(2‐pyridinyl) benzyl amides/ketones. Mechanistic studies, including electrochemical studies, radical‐trapping experiments, and Stern–Volmer fluorescence quenching studies demonstrate that pyridine N‐oxide serves as both a redox auxiliary and radical acceptor to achieve the mild photocatalytic single‐electron oxidation of carbon–carbon triple bonds with the generation of a cationic vinyl radical intermediate.
