Self-photocatalysis with multiple activities: divergent synthesis of benzo[b]fluorenones and benzo[b]fluorenols from enone-ynes

Herein, we report a self-photocatalysis-enabled divergent synthesis of benzo[b]fluorenones and benzo[b]fluorenols from enone-ynes in batch and flow under mild and metal-, photocatalyst- and redox-agent-free conditions. The photocatalytic system exhibits multiple...
