A visible-light photoredox-catalyzed reductive α-aminomethyl carboxylation of styrenes with sodium glycinates and CO2 has been developed to synthesize a series of α,α-disubstituted γ-amino acids and γ-lactams with high efficiency and regioselectivity. Notably, CO2 released from the decarboxylation step can be reused for the subsequent carboxylation. Distinct from the previous reactions with the same type of substrates leading to simple decarboxylation and olefin hydroalkylation, this process involves additional CO2 sequestration, thus leading to olefin α-aminomethyl carboxylation. These findings not only provide new access to α,α-disubstituted γ-amino acids and γ-lactams but also serve as a proof of concept for CO2 reutilization in decarboxylation reactions.

Conventional photoredox catalytic additions of alcohols to olefins require additives, like thiophenol, to promote back electron transfer. The concept of “photozymes” assumes that forward and backward electron transfer steps in a photoredox catalytic cycle
Deaminative carbonylative coupling of alkylamines with styrenes under transition-metal-free conditions

A transition-metal-free deaminative carbonylation of alkylamines with styrenes has been developed. The reaction shows good functional group compatibility and various α,β-unsaturated ketones were obtained in moderate to good yields. The alkyl radical generated from Katritzky salts via base-promoted C-N bond cleavage is one of the key intermediates in this reaction. This journal is
