The visible-light photoredox/[Co(III)] cocatalyzed dehydrogenative functionalization of cyclic and acyclic styryl derivatives with carboxylic acids is documented. The methodology enables the chemo- and regioselective allylic functionalization of styryl compounds, leading to allylic carboxylates (32 examples) under stoichiometric acceptorless conditions. Intermolecular as well as intramolecular variants are documented in high yields (up to 82%). A mechanistic rationale is also proposed on the basis of a combined experimental and spectroscopic investigation.

A new catalyst system able to efficiently perform the synthesis of styrenes via C-H bond functionalization and a subtle ligand modification are described. The high level of activity achieved allows for the synthesis of highly functionalized α,β-substituted styrenes, even the elusive E-configured trisubstituted olefins, in a regio- and stereoselective manner. Mechanistic experiments allowed for the identification of the corresponding synthetic intermediates.
