Abstract

A visible light-induced palladium-catalyzed homologative three-component synthesis of a broad range of allylic amines involves two distinct cycles enabled by the same Pd(0) catalyst: a visible light-induced hybrid radical alkyl Heck reaction between 1,1-dielectrophile and styrene, followed by the "in dark" classical Tsuji-Trost-type allylic substitution reaction.
