An efficient and mild method for acyl-Csp3 bond formation based on the direct conversion of carboxylic acids has been established. This protocol is enabled by the synergistic, Ir-photoredox/nickel catalytic cross-coupling of in situ activated c

In this study we demonstrate that molecular fragments, which can be readily coupled via a simple, in situ RO-C=OR bond-forming reaction, can subsequently undergo metal insertion-decarboxylation-recombination to generate Csp2-Csp3 bonds when subjected to metallaphotoredox catalysis. In this embodiment the conversion of a wide variety of mixed anhydrides (formed in situ from carboxylic acids and acyl chlorides) to fragment-coupled ketones is accomplished in good to high yield. A three-step synthesis of the medicinal agent edivoxetine is also described using this new decarboxylation-recombination protocol.
