Executing photoredox reactions in flow offers solutions to frequently encountered issues regarding reproducibility, reaction time, and scale-up. Here, we report the transfer of a photoredox-catalyzed benzylic coupling of alkylarenes to aldehydes to a flow chemistry setting leading to improvements in terms of higher concentration, shorter residence times, better yields, ease of catalyst preparation, and enhanced substrate scope. Its applicability has been demonstrated by a multi-gram-scale reaction using high-power light-emitting diodes (LEDs), late-stage functionalization of selected active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), and also a photocatalyst recycling method.

Metal homoenolates are valuable synthetic intermediates which provide access to β-functionalized ketones. In this report, we disclose a Ni-catalyzed β-alkylation reaction of cyclopropanol-derived homoenolates using redox-active N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) esters as the alkylating reagents. The reaction is compatible with 1°, 2°, and 3° NHPI esters. Mechanistic studies imply radical activation of the NHPI ester and 2e β-carbon elimination occurring on the cyclopropanol.

Mor(DalPhos) for Me(sylates): Described are the first examples of ketone mono-α-arylation and primary aliphatic amine monoarylation employing aryl methanesulfonate coupling partners. A range of functionalized aryl mesylates were employed with dialkyl ketones, and also with primary and secondary amines as well as the otherwise challenging coupling partners acetone and methylamine.
