Abstract
Hydrogenation and oxidation, common reactions in organic synthesis, usually require hydrogen or oxygen donors. Now, a study reports a hydrogenative oxidation protocol that allows N-heteroarenes to be converted to lactams, with water providing both the reducing hydrogen and oxidizing oxygen.
