Abstract
A strategy for the synthesis of coumarin derivatives via visible-light photoredox catalysis has been developed using fac-Ir(ppy)3 as the photocatalyst under mild conditions. Trifluoromethanesulfonyl chloride is utilized as the trifluoromethylation reagent, which is cheap and readily available. Aryl alkynoates are trifluoromethylated, then undergo a radical cyclization and a cascade ester migration to generate target products.
