Since benzimidazole containing moieties have a lot of pharmacological activities, we reported the ageneral metal-free and cost-effective, I2/DTBP-catalyzed method for the functionalization of N-H bonds of azoles via α-C(sp3)-H activation of cyclic ethers or cyclic thioethers. And this method is also applicable to a diverse range of N-substituted azoles and cyclic ethers/thioethers. By using the free-radical scavenger 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl (TEMPO) as a control, we suggest that a radical/SET mechanism proceeding via a radical/oxonium or thionium ion may be involved in the reaction.
