Olefins are prevalent substrates and functionalities. The synthesis of olefins from readily available starting materials such as alcohols, amines and carboxylic acids is of great significance to address the sustainability concerns in organic synthesis. Metallaphotoredox-catalyzed defunctionalizations were reported to achieve such transformations under mild conditions. However, all these valuable strategies require a transition metal catalyst, a ligand or an expensive photocatalyst, with the challenges of controlling the region- and stereoselectivities remaining. Herein, we present a fundamentally distinct strategy enabled by electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complexes, for the selective synthesis of olefins from these simple and easily available starting materials. The conversions took place via photoactivation of the EDA complexes of the activated substrates with alkali salts, followed by hydrogen atom elimination from in situ generated alkyl radicals. This method is operationally simple and straightforward and free of photocatalysts and transition-metals, and shows high regio- and stereoselectivities.

Although tremendous effort has been devoted to the development of methods for iron catalysis, few of the catalysts reported to date exhibit clear superiority to other metal catalysts, and the mechanisms of most iron catalysis remain unclear. Herein, we report that iron complexes bearing 2,9-diaryl-1,10-phenanthroline ligands exhibit not only unprecedented catalytic activity but also unusual ligand-controlled divergent regioselectivity in hydrosilylation reactions of various alkynes. The hydrosilylation protocol described herein provides a highly efficient method for preparing useful di- and trisubstituted olefins on a relatively large scale under mild conditions, and its use markedly improved the synthetic efficiency of a number of bioactive compounds. Mechanistic studies based on control experiments and density functional theory calculations were performed to understand the catalytic pathway and the observed regioselectivity.
