| Abstract: | A general strategy for the cleavage and amination of C?C bonds of cycloalkanols has been achieved through visible‐light‐induced photoredox catalysis utilizing a cerium(III) chloride complex. This operationally simple methodology has been successfully applied to a wide array of unstrained cyclic alcohols, and represents the first example of catalytic C?C bond cleavage and functionalization of unstrained secondary cycloalkanols. |
