Abstract

A redox-neutral and highly chemoselective visible-light-induced deboronative alkynylation reaction works with primary, secondary and tertiary alkyl trifluoroborates or boronic acids to generate aryl, alkyl and silyl substituted alkynes. This reaction tolerates substrates containing alkenes, alkynes, aldehydes, ketones, esters, nitriles, azides, aryl halides, alkyl halides, alcohols, and indoles.
