A method for remote radical C-H alkynylation and amination of diverse aliphatic alcohols has been developed. The reaction features a copper nucleophile complex formed <i>in situ</i> as a photocatalyst, which reduces the silicon-tethered aliphatic iodide to an alkyl radical to initiate 1,<i>n</i>-hydrogen atom transfer. Unactivated secondary and tertiary C-H bonds at β, γ, and δ positions can be functionalized in a predictable manner. ...[more]
