Synthesis of Naphthalenones via Photo‐Induced Radical Cascade Fluoroalkylation/Cyclization of Alkenes

Herein, we report a photoredox‐catalyzed fluoroalkylation of activated alkenes via fluorinated alkyl‐centered radical induced radical addition/annulation/SET/deprotonation in a domino fashion using 4CzIPN as photocatalyst. The protocol features room temperature, transition metal free, high yields and simple operation, affording a facile and efficient strategy to access fluorine‐containing naphthalenone.
