Abstract

An efficient, ATRA (Atom‐Transfer Radical Addition)‐based, Ru‐photocatalyzed radical‐polar crossover reaction for the preparation of monoprotected dicarbonyl compounds is reported. This procedure is based on the capture of a cationic intermediate, arising from the radical step, with diverse nucleophiles. Additionally, we have extended this methodology to the synthesis of 1,5‐dicarbonyl compounds by using cyanide as the oxocarbenium‐capturing nucleophile.
