Overview

This method demonstrates a catalyst-free approach to synthesize difluoroalkylated chroman-4-ones in various substrates, highlighting mechanisms.

Key Points

  • The method enables efficient synthesis of diverse RCF2-functionalized chroman-4-ones, maximizing substrate scope.
  • Key mechanistic insights reveal bromodifluoroacetates serving dual roles as difluoroalkyl sources and hydrogen acceptors.
  • The visible light-driven process eliminates the need for external photocatalysts, simplifying the reaction setup.
  • This catalyst-free approach allows reaction to proceed at room temperature, enhancing practical applicability.
