The generation of sulfonyl radicals has long been known as a flexible strategy in a wide range of different sulfonylative transformations. Meanwhile their use in alkylation processes has been somehow limited due to their inherent difficulty in evolving to less-stable radicals after sulfur dioxide extrusion. Herein we report a convenient strategy that involves gem-difluorinated sulfinates as an “upgrading-mask”, allowing these precursors to decompose into their corresponding alkyl radicals. The electron–donor character of sulfinates in the formation of an electron donor–acceptor (EDA) complex with transient iminium ions is displayed, achieving the first example of a stereocontrolled light-driven insertion of gem-difluoro derivatives into unsaturated aldehydes. This methodology is compatible with flow conditions, maintaining identical levels of enantiocontrol.

An organocatalytic asymmetric domino Michael/α-alkylation reaction between enals and non-stabilized alkyl halides has been developed. Chiral secondary amine catalyzed cyclization reaction of 1-bromo-3-nitropropane with α,β-unsaturated aldehydes provides 1,2,3-trisubstituted cyclopentane carbaldehydes with high diastereo- (dr up to 8 : 1) and enantioselectivities (ee up to 96 %).

An iron-catalyzed α,β-dehydrogenation of carbonyl compounds was developed. A broad spectrum of carbonyls or analogues, such as aldehyde, ketone, lactone, lactam, amine, and alcohol, could be converted to their α,β-unsaturated counterparts in a simple one-step reaction with high yields.
