Ketones are ubiquitous in bioactive natural products, pharmaceuticals, chemical feedstocks, and synthetic intermediates. Hence, deacylative coupling reactions enable the versatile elaboration of a plethora chemicals to access complex drug candidates products. Here, we present arylation alkynylation strategies for synthesis wide range alkyl-tethered arenes alkynes from cyclic ketones methyl under dual nickel/photoredox catalysis. This reaction begins by generating pre-aromatic intermediate (PAI) through condensation ketone

ConspectusChemists have long pursued harnessing light energy and photoexcitation processes for synthetic transformations. Ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) in high-valent metal complexes often triggers bond homolysis, generating oxidized ligand-centered radicals reduced centers. While photoinduced oxidative activations can be enabled, this process, typically seen as photochemical decomposition, remains underexplored catalytic applications. To mitigate decomposition during LMCT excitation, we developed a cycle integrating situ coordination, LMCT, ligand homolysis to activate ligated alcohols transiently into alkoxy radicals. This approach leverages Ce(IV) excitation highly reactive radical intermediates selective functionalizations of C(sp
