Abstract

A visible light-induced radical cascade reaction of 2-alkynylarylethers with sodium sulfinates was established for the synthesis of sulfonyl-functionalized dihydrobenzofurans, and an intramolecular 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer was involved in this transformation. This process provided an efficient and convenient C-C formation protocol for the construction of a dihydrobenzofuran ring. Various substituents on 2-alkynylarylethers and sodium sulfinates were tolerated in the reaction, and the corresponding products were obtained in moderate to good yields.
