The addition of π-allylmetal complexes to carbonyls is the most important route to homoallylic alcohols. This study reports the first photocatalytic generation of π-allyltitanium complexes by a radical strategy. This novel strategy enables the three-component allylation of carbonyls with 1,3-butadiene, providing rapid access to valuable homoallylic alcohols (over 60 examples). The exceptional regio- and diastereoselectivity provided by dual photoredox/Ti catalysis is comparable to that of the Cr-catalyzed Nozaki–Hiyama–Kishi allylation reaction.

A recyclable organic photoreductant (1 mol % CBZ6)-catalyzed reductive (pinacol) coupling of aldehydes, ketones, and imines has been developed. Irradiated by purple light (407 nm) using triethylamine as an electron donor, a variety of 1,2-diols and 1,2-diamines could be prepared. The oxidation potential of the excited state of CBZ6 is established as -1.92 V (vs saturated calomel electrode (SCE)). The relative high reductive potential enables the reductive coupling of carbonyl compounds and their derivatives. CBZ6 can be prepared in gram scale and is acid/base- or air-stable. It could be applied in large-scale photoreductive synthesis and recovered in high yield after the reaction.

Intermolecular photoredox ene-carbonyl reductive coupling reactions typically have low product selectivity owing to competing dimerization and/or reduction of ketyl radicals. Herein, we report a metal-organic layer (MOL), Hf-Ir-OTf, as a bifunctional photocatalyst for selective photoredox reductive coupling of ketones or aldehydes with electron-deficient alkenes. Composed of iridium-based photosensitizers (Ir-PSs) and triflated Hf12 clusters, Hf-Ir-OTf uses Lewis acidic Hf sites to bind and activate electron-deficient alkenes to accept ketyl radicals generated by adjacent Ir-PSs, thereby suppressing undesired dimerization and reduction of ketyl radicals to enhance the selectivity for the cross-coupling products. The MOL-catalyzed reductive coupling reaction accommodates a variety of olefinic substrates and tolerates reducible groups, nicely complementing current methods for cross-coupling reactions.
