A sustainable photocatalytic approach has been established for trifluoroalkylation of isoquinoline via a three-component Minisci-type reaction using a green solvent. The polarity reversal radical cascade strategy renders the selective addition of an electrophilic CF radical to an olefin to forge a nucleophilic -centered radical. This multicomponent approach is operationally simple and environmentally benign with various functional groups, viz. aldehydes, acetals, amides, and halides. Mechanistic investigations were carried out to elaborate the reductive quenching catalytic pathway.

A catalyst-free approach for the multicomponent aminoheteroarylation reaction of alkenes with -aminopyridinium salts and heteroarenes is herein described. The reaction shows good functional group tolerance and allows the generation of valuable β-heteroarylethylamines in satisfying yields. In this transformation, -aminopyridinium salts and heteroarenes are utilized to generate electron donor-acceptor complexes, which undergo a single-electron transfer process upon light irradiation to form key amidyl radicals and heteroaryl radical cations.
