Abstrakt: Herein, we report a direct photochemical dehydrogenative C-N coupling of unactivated C(sp 2 )-H and N(sp 2 )-H bonds. The catalysts or additive-free transformation of 2-([1,1'-biphenyl]-2-yl)-1 H -benzo[ d ]imidazole to benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2- f ]phenanthridine was achieved at ∼350 nm of irradiation via ε-hydrogen abstraction. DFT calculations helped to understand that the N-H···π interaction was essential for the reaction to proceed at a lower energy than expected.
