A Domino Radical Amidation/Semipinacol Approach to All‐Carbon Quaternary Centers Bearing an Aminomethyl Group

Abstract

A photoredox-mediated radical amidation ringexpansion sequence that enables the generation of all-carbon quaternary centers bearing a protected aminomethyl substituent is described. The methodology can be applied to both styrene and unactivated alkene substrates generating structurally diverse sp 3 -rich amine derivatives in a concise manner.
