Herein we report silyl radicals serve as isocyanide transfer agents for Giese-type reaction from aliphatic amines and electron-deficient olefins. α-Primary, α-secondary, sterically encumbered α-tertiary primary could be easily converted into isocyanides coupling with olefins by employing latent under visible light irradiation. Notably, the abstraction of silane-mediated not only enables voltage-independent activation strong C-N bonds but also represents a mechanistic alternative in which single electron reduction protonation processes are replaced direct hydrogen atom transfer. This transformation occurs photoinduced catalyst-free conditions exhibits excellent functional group compatibility mild conditions.
