Abstract
The common organo-photocatalyst Eosin Y shows excellent catalytic activities for thermal redox reactions under a catalytic amount of Cu(OAc)2 too. Using this catalytic system, a formal [3 + 2] cycloaddition of vinyl azides and ketene silyl acetals provides five-membered ene-γ-lactams and bridge ring lactams via an α-ester radical addition without light irradiation.
