A synthetic protocol to isoindoles is reported through one‐electron reductions of dibenzo[1,4]diazocines. The utility of the approach has been demonstrated through the synthesis of six novel isoindole derivatives. Photophysical measurements revealed emissions between 440 and 460 nm. A reaction mechanism, supported by experimental results and quantum chemical calculations, is postulated.
