The visible-light-induced photoredox difunctionalization reactions of styrenes with 1,1,1-trifluoro-2-iodoethane under an oxygen atmosphere in the presence of water give γ-trifluoromethyl alcohols. In this radical reaction, the oxygen atom in the product originates from molecular oxygen, and water is shown to be important to promote the reaction.
