For the first time, 4-alkyl Hantzsch esters were used to construct molecules with all-carbon quaternary centers by visible light-induced photoredox catalysis via transfer alkylation. Up to a 1500 h(-1) turnover frequency was achieved in this reaction. Reactions of 4-alkyl Hantzsch nitriles as tertiary radical donors joined two contiguous all-carbon quaternary centers intermolecularly, and this chemistry

The intermolecular direct C–H alkylation of aniline derivatives with α-bromo ketones to build a quaternary carbon center was reported with a visible-light catalysis procedure. The reaction covers a variety of functional groups with good to excellent yields. A regioselectivity favoring the ortho position for the amine group was observed and investigated with Fukui indices and spectral methods.
