Abstract A method for site‐specific intermolecular γ‐C(sp 3 )−H functionalization of ketones has been developed using an α‐aminoxy acid auxiliary applying photoredox catalysis. Regioselective activation inert C−H bond is achieved by 1,5‐hydrogen atom abstraction oxidatively generated iminyl radical. Tertiary and secondary C‐radicals thus formed at the γ‐position imine functionality undergo radical conjugate addition to various Michael acceptors provide, after reduction hydrolysis, corresponding γ‐functionalized ketones.

Vicinal alkene carboamination is a highly efficient and practical synthetic strategy for the straightforward preparation of diverse valuable amine derivatives starting from simple compounds. During last decade that approach has found continuous research interests various methods have been developed using transition-metal catalysis. Driven by renaissance radical chemistry, intermolecular comprising C-C bond C-N forming step intensively investigated recently culminating in novel strategies improved protocols which complement existing methodologies. Radical can be achieved via three different reaction modes. Such cascades proceed through N-radical addition to an with subsequent formation leading 2,1-carboamination products. Alternatively, installed prior initial C-radical β-amination resulting 1,2-carboamination. The third mode comprises single electron oxidation corresponding cation gets trapped N-nucleophile cascade terminated formation. In this review, conceptual approaches will discussed examples recent literature presented. Further, reader get insights into mechanism transformations.
