title: Visible-light-mediated radical insertion/cyclization cascade reaction: synthesis of phenanthridines and isoquinolines from isocyanides.
abstract: A visible-light promoted single electron oxidation of ether enabled by photoredox catalysis has been accomplished. This procedure initiates a novel radical insertion/cyclization cascade reaction to generate phenanthridines and isoquinolines from easily available isocyanides under mild reaction conditions.
