Photoredox/copper-catalyzed gem-difluoroalkylation-cyanation of 1,3-enynes

Abstract

A photoredox/copper-catalyzed 1,4-difunctionalization of 1,3-enynes with readily available difluoroalkylating reagents and TMSCN was developed. This reaction proceeded at mild conditions, affording the corresponding difluoroalkylated allenes in good yields with high...
