ABSTRACT
The molecular editing of ketones represents an appealing strategy due to its ability to maximize the structural diversity of ketone compounds in a straightforward manner. However, developing efficient methods for the arbitrary modification of ketonic molecules, particularly those integrated within complex skeletons, remains a significant challenge. Herein, we present a unique strategy for ketone recasting that involves radical acylation of pre-functionalized ketones facilitated by N-heterocyclic carbene and photo dual catalysis. This protocol features excellent substrate tolerance and can be applied to the convergent synthesis and late-stage functionalization of structurally complex bioactive ketones. Mechanistic investigations, including experimental studies and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, shed light on the reaction mechanism and elucidate the basis of the regioselectivity.
