Catalytic Photoinduced Intramolecular Decarboxylative and Desulfonylative sp3Allylation Enabled by Sulfinate Salts

Abstract

Herein, we describe a catalytic intramolecular decarboxylative/desulfonylative sp3 allylation triggered by sulfinate salts under light irradiation. The reaction is likely enabled by a non-classical, radical-polar crossover reaction, allowing to rapidly and reliably access valuable allyl architectures from readily accessible precursors. The protocol is characterized by its operational simplicity and scalability, employing abundant, commercially available catalysts
