Allylic C(sp³)-H alkylation via synergistic organo- and photoredox catalyzed radical addition to imines.

ABSTRACT: A new catalytic method for the direct alkylation of allylic C(sp³)-H bonds from unactivated alkenes via synergistic organo- and photoredox catalysis is described. The transformation achieves an efficient, redox-neutral synthesis of homoallylamines with broad functional group tolerance, under very mild reaction conditions. Mechanistic investigations indicate that the reaction proceeds through the N-centered radical intermediate which is generated by the allylic radical addition to the imine.
