Abstract

The aerobic photochemical oxidation of benzylamine was carried out on the ternary oxides CuWO<sub>4</sub> and BiVO<sub>4</sub> as a test proton-coupled-electron-transfer reaction in acetonitrile. Both oxides give the coupled imine product, N-benzylidenebenzylamine, in near quantitative (98-99%) yield, with rate constants of 0.34 h<sup>-1</sup> g<sup>-1</sup> and 0.70 h<sup>-1</sup> g<sup>-1</sup> for CuWO<sub>4</sub> and BiVO<sub>4</sub>, respectively.
