Copper-Catalyzed Photoinduced Enantioselective Dual Carbofunctionalization of Alkenes.

A photoinduced, copper-catalyzed, highly enantioselective dual alkylation/arylation and alkynylation of alkene is reported. A single chiral copper(I) complex serves to enable photoredox catalysis and induce enantioselectivity during the reaction. This reaction couples three different components under mild reaction conditions, exhibits a broad substrate scope, and provides facile access to chiral propargylic systems, including those featuring valuable fluorinated substituents.
