A novel and simple HCl-mediated, photocatalytic method for quinoxaline(on)es C3-H arylation with arylhydrazine under transition metal catalyst- and oxidant-free conditions is presented. Various quinoxaline(on)es underwent this transformation smoothly, demonstrating a broad substrate tolerance and providing the corresponding aryl products in moderate to excellent yields. Mechanistic studies indicated that a radical pathway may be involved in this transformation.
