A visiblelight-induced process for selective difluoroalkylation of unactivated alkenes has been developed. The choice of base is crucial for governing the chemoselectivity of the process to produce difluoroalkylated alkanes and alkenes.

A method for trifluoromethylation of alkenes has been developed employing visible light photoredox catalysis with CF3I, Ru(Phen)(3)Cl-2, and DBU. This process works especially well for terminal alkenes to give alkenyl-CF3 products with only E-stereochemistry. The mild reaction conditions enable the trifluoromethylation of a range of alkenes that bear various functional groups.
