Radical-mediated difunctionalization of alkenes is a powerful tactic for olefin utilization. However, the transformation of unactivated alkenes still remains a formidable challenge. Now a conceptually new docking–migration strategy is presented for the difunctionalization of alkenes with photoredox catalysis. Both activated and unactivated alkenes are suitable substrates. A vast array of functional groups are compatible with the mild reaction conditions. Heteroaryl and difluoromethyl are concomitantly incorporated into alkenes, leading to synthetically valuable products that are readily converted into a variety of fluorine-containing molecules. The protocol provides a kinetic control of stereoselectivity for cycloalkenes to generate the unusual cis-products, and offers an efficient approach for the late-stage functionalization of complex natural products and drug molecules. A portfolio of dual-function reagents are prepared for the elusive radical difunctionalization of alkenes.

We developed a facile, efficient, and scalable route to achieve monofluoromethylsulfinyl alkylation of quinoxalinones. NaSO2CH2F served as the source of methylene to construct new C-C and C-S bonds via C-F bond cleavage. NaSO2CH2F was also the source of SO2CH2F. Density functional theory calculations confirmed the proposed mechanism, in which the SO2CH2F radical is immediately trapped. The reaction exhibited a high level of atom economy. Moreover, some representative products displayed excellent biological activity.

The commercially available fluoroiodomethane represents a valuable and effective electrophilic source for transferring the CH2F unit to a series of heteroatom-centered nucleophiles under mild basic conditions. The excellent manipulability offered by its liquid physical state (bp 53.4 °C) enables practical and straightforward one-step nucleophilic substitutions to retain the chiral information embodied, thus allowing it to overcome de facto the requirement for fluoromethylating agents with no immediate access. The high-yielding methodology was successfully applied to a variety of nucleophiles including a series of drugs currently in the market.
