title: Transition-metal-free tandem radical thiocyanooxygenation of olefinic amides: a new route to SCN-containing heterocycles.
abstract: A novel transition-metal-free tandem radical thiocyanooxygenation of olefinic amides with potassium thiocyanate has been developed under mild conditions. This method allows a reliable and practical access to diverse SCN-containing heterocycles bearing a wide range of functional groups in good to excellent yields. Furthermore, this tandem reaction provides a simple method for the construction of C-O and C-S bonds in one step.
