Photo-Induced Three-Component Radical Trifluoromethylation/Heteroarylation of Alkenes via EDA Complexes.
This study develops a visible-light-induced electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complex strategy, employing the inexpensive and readily available DBU as the electron donor and the industrially available CF3Br as the trifluoromethyl source, to achieve the trifluoromethylation/heteroarylation of alkenes. This method offers adv...
