Abstract

Boron-containing thiophenes are important entities in organic/medicinal chemistry as well as in material science. In this Letter, a novel, straightforward, and fast procedure for their production employing visible light as an energy source at room temperature and ambient pressure is reported. All substrates are commercially available, and the process does not require the use of any external photocatalyst.
