Ethynylbenziodoxolones (EBXs) are commonly used as radical traps in photocatalytic alkynylations. Herein, we report that aryl-substituted EBX reagents can be directly activated by visible light irradiation. They act as both oxidants and radical traps, alleviating the need for a photocatalyst in several reported EBX-mediated processes, including decarboxylative and deboronative alkynylations, the oxyalkynylation of enamides and the C?H alkynylation of THF. Furthermore, the method could be applied to the synthesis of alkynylated quaternary centers from tertiary alcohols via stable oxalate salts and from tertiary amines via aryl imines. A photocatalytic process using 4CzIPN as an organic dye was also developed for the deoxyalkynylation of oxalates.

A visible light mediated deformylative alkynylation of aldehydes is presented. Under photo irradiation, 1,4-dihydropyridine (DHP), derived from an aldehyde, generated a C(sp3)- radical which couples with an alkynylbenziodoxolone to generate an

The amino group represents one of the most prevalent structural motifs in organic chemistry. Therefore, application of amines as alkylating agents in synthesis is highly compelling. Herein, we present a metal-free photoredox strategy for the formation of C(sp3)-C(sp) and C(sp3)-C(sp2) bonds from redox-activated primary amine derivatives. The developed reaction of 2,4,6-triphenylpyridinium salts with alkynyl p-tolylsulfones, leading to functionalized alkynes, is easily scalable and offers broad substrate scope, high chemoselectivity, and mild conditions. Its potential is also highlighted by diversification of complex molecular scaffolds. Additionally, the approach is also suitable for synthesis of (E)-alkenes from vinyl phenyl sulfones. Mechanistic studies contribute to the elucidation of unexpected differences in reactivity of primary and secondary alkyl substituted pyridinium salts.
