Functionalized azetidines via visible light-enabled aza Paternò-Büchi reactions

The Aza Paternò-Büchi reaction is arguably among the most direct approaches to functionalized azetidines, which are common medicinal scaffolds. Here, the authors report a mild and selective visible light-enabled intramolecular aza Paternò-Büchi reaction yielding bicyclic azetidines in high yields an...
