By combining the visible‐light catalyst, Ru(bpy) 3 Cl 2 , and transition metal salts, Cu(OTf) 2 , we are able to functionalize secondary amines to form C sp 3 C sp 3 bonds with β‐keto esters efficiently by an aerobic oxidative coupling reaction under visible light irradiation at ambient conditions.
