Developing efficient and selective strategies to approach complex architectures containing (multi)stereogenic centers has been a long-standing synthetic challenge in both academia industry. Catalytic cascade reactions represent powerful means of rapidly leveraging molecular complexity from simple feedstocks. Unfortunately, carrying out Heck-type involving unactivated (tertiary) alkyl halides remains an unmet owing unavoidable β-hydride elimination. Herein, we show that modular, practical, general palladium-catalyzed, radical three-component coupling can indeed overcome the aforementioned limitations through interrupted Heck/allylic substitution sequence mediated by visible light. Selective 1,4-difunctionalization 1,3-dienes, such as butadiene, achieved employing different commercially available nitrogen-, oxygen-, sulfur-, or carbon-based nucleophiles bromides (>130 examples, mostly >95:5 E/Z, >20:1 rr). Sequential C(sp3)–C(sp3) C–X (N, O, S) bonds have constructed efficiently with broad scope high functional group tolerance. The flexibility versatility strategy illustrated gram-scale reaction streamlined syntheses ether, sulfone, tertiary amine products, some which would be difficult access via currently established methods.
