Visible-Light-Induced Three-Component Radical Coupling of Selenocarbamates, Enones, and Allylstannanes with Diphenyl (2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine Oxide

Synlett DOI: 10.1055/a-2214-5512 A blue LED-induced three-component coupling of a carbamoyl radical, cyclic enone, and allylstannane was developed. The use of blue LEDs and diphenyl(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide (TPO) as a radical initiator permitted the three-component radical coupling to proceed with a high chemoselectivity. An elucidation of the mechanism revealed a pathway for the formation of a tributyltin radical from TPO and allylstannane. This tandem radical reaction is expected to be applicable in natural-product synthesis.
