Aerobic iron-catalyzed site-selective C(sp3)–C(sp3) bond cleavage in N-heterocycles

The kinetic and thermodynamic stability of C(sp3)–C(sp3) bonds makes the site-selective activation of these motifs a real synthetic challenge. In view of this, herein a site-selective method of C(sp3)–C(sp3) bond scission of amines, specifically morpholine and piperazine derivatives, using a cheap i...
