This paper reveals that visible light irradiation with Ru(phen) 3 Cl 2 as photocatalyst can induce ethyl 2‐( N ‐arylcarbamoyl)‐2‐chloroiminoacetates to undergo NCl cleavage to give α‐(aminocarbonyl)iminyl radicals under an argon atmosphere. The subsequent cyclization of the thus formed iminyl radicals affords quinoxalin‐2(1 H )‐one products in good yield in the presence of an inorganic base such as Na 2 CO 3 . The reactions proceeded very well even without using a photocatalyst when DMF was used as the solvent. These protocols provide a new, simple method for the generation of iminyl radicals, and the reactions described herein constitute an efficient method for the synthesis of quinoxalin‐2(1 H )‐one derivatives.
