Abstract
Abstract We report herein a simple, metal- and oxidant-free visible light promoted strategy for an anti-Markovnikov hydrothiolation of unactivated olefins using benzophenone as an inexpensive photocatalyst at room temperature. Anti-Markovnikov adducts of a wide variety of olefins and thiols are formed in highly regioselective manner and good to excellent yields. The present radical thiol-ene reaction is operationally simple and well tolerates a variety of functional groups.
