“…This result encouraged us to optimize the reaction condition further and, in this regard, we screened the reaction with different organic as well as inorganic bases. We observed that among all the bases, DIPEA proved to be efficient in affording the desired product 2 a (Table 1, Entries 2,[7][8][9][13][14]. Having optimized the photocatalyst and base, we further screened the reaction using different solvents to enhance the yield of desired product 2 a (Table 1, .…”
