The arylation of isonitriles by diaryliodonium salts under photoredox conditions has been proposed for the first time. The suggested procedure allows preparing a broad range of benzamides using both symmetric and unsymmetric diaryliodonium salts under mild conditions. A plausible mechanism for the reaction and the selectivity of aryl transfer (in case of unsymmetrical iodonium salts) were studied.
