Abstract

A dealkylative addition of trialkylamines to dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates with eosin Y as a metal-free catalyst and molecular oxygen as the terminal oxidant was developed. This visible-light-mediated organocatalytic protocol is compatible with a wide variety of trialkylamines, giving the corresponding adducts in moderate to good yields.
