We have developed an ultrasound-assisted remote benzylic C(sp3)–H alkylation of N-fluorobenzamides with enol silanes; a series β-aryl substituted propiophenones was generated in good to high yields. This reaction represents formal C(sp3)–C(sp3) coupling and features simplicity, efficiency, wide substrate scope multiple-step sequential process, which involves N–F homolysis, 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer, radical addition, oxidation by copper(II) salt, removal the trimethylsilyl group. Also, DFT theoretical calculations Marcus theory were employed consolidate proposed mechanism.
