Tellurium(II)/Tellurium(III)-Catalyzed Cross-Dehydrogenative C-N Bond Formation.

ABSTRACT: The Te^II /Te^III -catalyzed dehydrogenative C-H phenothiazination of challenging phenols featuring electron-withdrawing substituents under mild aerobic conditions and with high yields is described. These unexpected Te^II /Te^III radical catalytic properties were characterized by cyclic voltammetry, EPR spectroscopy, kinetic experiments, and DFT calculations.
