Photo-induced 1,2-alkylarylation/cyclization of alkenes, alkyl halides and N-alkylindoles via an EDA-complex

Abstract

Herein, a photo-induced strategy for the redox-neutral 1,2-alkylarylation and 1,2-alkylarylation cyclization of alkenes, alkyl halides and N‑alkylindoles was developed. Importantly, this strategy could be widely used to synthesize polysubstituted tetrahydrofuran...
