Abstract

Recent advancements in photocatalytic strategies have expanded the range of alkylating agents, including alkyl carboxylic acids and saturated hydrocarbons. Notably, alcohols are preferred for their availability, stability, and safety compared to traditional alkylating reagents such as alkyl halides. This review summarizes recent developments in photocatalytic deoxygenative alkylation using alcohols, specifically through the formation of xanthates or thionocarbonates.
