The cross‐dehydrogenative‐coupling (CDC) reaction of benzoxazin‐2‐ones through visible‐light photoredox catalysis was developed. In the process of the reaction, an α‐amino radical intermediate is generated by using Ru(bpy) 3 Cl 2 as a photoredox catalyst under visible‐light irradiation at room temperature. This intermediate is then oxidized, using O 2 as terminal oxidant, to give an iminium ion intermediate. The iminium ion reacts directly with various aromatic nucleophiles to give the desired cross‐coupling products in yields of up to 80 %. This work provides a sustainable and environmentally friendly method for the synthesis of 3,4‐dihydro‐1,4‐benzoxazin‐2‐one derivatives.
