Investigations into the selectivity of intermolecular alkyl radical additions to C-O- vs. C-C-double bonds in α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds are described. Therefore, a photoredox-initiated radical chain reaction is explored, where the activation of the carbonyl-group through an in situ generated Lewis acid-originating from the substrate-enables the formation of either C-O or the C-C-addition products. α,β-Unsaturated aldehydes form selectively 1,2-, while esters and ketones form the corresponding 1,4-addition products exclusively. Computational studies lead to reason that this chemo- and regioselectivity is determined by the consecutive step, i.e. an electron transfer, after reversible radical addition, which eventually propagates the radical chain.

A cationic iridium complex [Ir(cod)2]SbF6 was found to be a new and efficient Lewis acid catalyst for Mukaiyama aldol and Mannich reactions. Aldehydes react smoothly with silyl enol ethers to give β-siloxy ketones in the presence of 0.5 mol % of [Ir(cod)2]SbF6. The reaction of N-alkyl arylaldimines with ketene silyl acetals in the presence of 5 mol % [Ir(cod)2]SbF6/P(OPh)3 gave β-amino esters. After Mannich reaction was complete, stirring of the reaction mixture for 24 h led to cyclization to give β-lactam. The reaction of N-aryl benzaldimine with silyl enol ether derived from acetophenone gave a tetrahydroquinoline derivative as a single diastereomer.
