title: Synthesis of 6-acyl phenanthridines by oxidative radical decarboxylation-cyclization of α-oxocarboxylates and isocyanides.
abstract: A silver catalysed synthesis of 6-acyl phenanthridines by oxidative radical decarboxylation-cyclization of α-oxocarboxylates and isocyanides was developed. This reaction provided a novel method to realize C1 insertion via a radical process and various functional groups were well-tolerated.
