Cross-dehydrogenative coupling is an efficient route for C–C bond formation by direct C–H functionalization, however, this protocol usually requires stoichiometric oxidants under harsh reaction conditions. Here, the authors report a cross-dehydrogenative Minisci-alkylation using a heterogeneous Rh2O3/GaN photocatalyst and a benzophenone photosensitizer under oxidant-free conditions.
