Abstract

Photoelectron-transfer-catalyzed intermolecular carbon-carbon bond formation of primary, secondary, and tertiary amines with a,@-unsaturated esters and nitriles using photosensitizers such as anthraquinone, acridone, and dicyanoanthracene has been investigated. The addition of a-aminoalkyl radicals, generated via photoelectron-transfer processes, to olefinic substrates and the subsequent 1, 5-hydrogen abstraction reactions ...
