Visible Light-Mediated Decarboxylative Annulations of Oxamic Acids and Alkynes via Hydrogen Atom Transfer

β- and γ-lactams are critically important heterocycles in organic and medicinal chemistry, primarily due to their potent biological activities and distinctive three-dimensional architectures. Herein, a facile photochemical synthesis of a range of functionalized β- and γ-lactams derivatives from decarboxylative annula...
