Abstract

A visible-light-driven strategy for hydroacylation and epoxyacylation of olefins in water using methylene blue as photoredox catalyst and persulfate as oxidant is reported. In this unprecedented unified approach, two different transformations are accomplished using only one set of reagents. The method has a broad scope spanning a range of aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes as well as conjugated and nonconjugated olefins to deliver ketones and epoxyketones from abundant and inexpensive chemical feedstocks.
