Investigation of Straightforward, Photoinduced Alkylations of Electron‐Rich Heterocompounds with Electron‐Deficient Alkyl Bromides in the Sole Presence of 2,6‐Lutidine
photosensitizer: We introduce a method for selective photoinduced alkylations of electron‐rich heterocompounds with electron‐deficient allylbromides in the presence of 2,6‐lutidine at 365 or 405 nm. Mechanistic investigations reveal that a colored intermediate formed from 2,6‐lutidine and alkyl bromide is involved in the photoactivation. Our approach uses commercially available reagents and a straightforward
