Visible-light-induced three-component 1,2-alkylpyridylation of alkenes with unactivated alkyl iodides and aryl cyanides is reported via a photocatalytic halogen-atom transfer (XAT) strategy. This metal-free protocol utilizes readily available tertiary alkylamine as the terminal reductant to smoothly convert alkyl iodides into the corresponding carbon radical species. The reaction features a broad substrate scope, excellent functional group tolerance, high efficiency, and mild reaction conditions. The practicability of this methodology is further demonstrated in the late-stage difunctionalization of bioactive molecules.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) exhibit intriguing physicochemical properties due to their manageable structure, abundant porosity, and uniform pore size, which provide ideal environments for photocatalysts to achieve highly efficient photocatalysis. In this work, -Ir(ppy) is directly anchored to MOFs of MIL-101 with different morphologies Friedel-Crafts alkylation, affording various MIL-101-supported -Ir(ppy) without the molecular modification of -Ir(ppy). The as-fabricated photocatalysts possess high specific surface areas (785-962 m g), pore volumes (0.

A visible-light-induced three-component alkoxyalkylation of alkenes has been developed under the photocatalysis of -Ir(ppy). The alkene substrate scope included aryl and aliphatic alkenes as well as electron-rich and electron-deficient alkenes, allowing the facile coupling with a diverse array of α-halocarbonyl compounds. The redox potential-guided orchestration of radical processes with precision allows rapid access to highly functionalized products that are useful building blocks in organic synthesis.

Herein, a novel visible-light-induced 6- difluoromethylation cyclization and subsequent carbo-thioesterification reaction is described. This protocol allows efficient access to valuable -difluoro quinolin-2(1)-ones in moderate to excellent yields under mild conditions. Broad amino sources compatibility, including cyclic morpholine, thiazolidine, thiomorpholine, pyrrolidine, 1,4-oxazepane, 2,6-dimethylmorpholine, -butyl piperazine-1-carboxylate and noncyclic diethylamine, -ethylpropan-1-amine, -benzylethanamine, -benzyl-trimethylsilanamine, dibenzylamine, and -(4-methoxybenzyl)ethanamine, demonstrated the practicability of this strategy.
