Easily available α-carbonyl acetates serve as convenient alkyl radical source for an efficient, photocatalytic cross-coupling with a great variety of styrenes. Activation of electronically different α-acetylated acetophenone derivatives could be effected <i>via</i> LUMO lowering catalysis using a superior, synergistic combination of water and (water-compatible) Lewis acids. Deliberate application of <i>fac</i>-Ir(ppy)<sub>3</sub> as photocatalyst to enforce an oxidative quenching cycle is crucia ...[more]
