Abstract

Disclosed herein is a novel, redox-neutral protocol for the visible-light-induced radical alkynylation of unactivated olefins. The intramolecular migration of an alkynyl group, by cleaving an inert C-C σ bond, is realized for the first time. A wide range of synthetically useful trifluoroethylated linear alkynes are readily obtained under mild reaction conditions.
