Cover Feature: Photoredox‐Induced Deaminative Radical‐Cationic Three‐Component Couplings with N‐Alkylpyridinium Salts and Alkenes (ChemPhotoChem 11/2021)

Abstract

The Cover Feature shows a radical three-component coupling driven by visible light photoredox catalysis. Single electron transfer (SET) reduction of N-alkylpyridinium salts liberates nucleophilic carbon radicals that successively couple with an acceptor and a donor alkene, enabling a stereoselective synthesis of new succinimide derivatives.
