Abstract
An efficient and mild protocol for the visible light-induced radical cascade difluoromethylation/cyclization of imidazoles with unactivated alkenes using easily accessible and bench-stable difluoromethyltriphenylphosphonium bromide as the precursor of the -CF2H group has been developed to afford CF2H-substituted polycyclic imidazoles in moderate to good yields. This strategy, along with the construction of Csp3-CF2H/C-C bonds, is distinguished by mild conditions, no requirement of additives, simple operation, and wide substrate scope. In addition, the mechanistic experiments have indicated that the difluoromethyl radical pathway is essential for the methodology.

Abstract
Herein, it is reported that a series of trichloromethyl/dichloromethyl substituted benzimidazole derivatives have been synthesized by dechlorination of CCl4/CHCl3 to form polychloromethyl radicals and cyclization with an unactivated olefin under a purple LED lamp. The protocol features a wide substrate scope, high atom economy, and excellent regioselectivity, and is easy to scale up.

Abstract
Polychloromethylative cyclization of N-alkenyl indoles was developed under metal-free conditions to afford tricyclic pyridoindolones and pyrroloindolones in moderate to good yields. In the reaction, commercially available CHCl3 and CH2Cl2 were employed as tri- and dichloromethyl radical sources. Moreover, tri- and dichloromethylated polycyclic benzoimidazoles can also be obtained under standard conditions.

We report herein a facile strategy to synthesize trifluoromethylated γ-lactams through trifluoromethylcarbonylation of N-cyano alkenes using readily available CF3SO2Na as the CF3 radical source. A range of trifluoromethyl-containing γ-lactams was obtained in good yields. This transition-metal-free protocol is demonstrated with mild conditions, broad substrate scope, good functional group tolerance, convenient reagents, and an easy-to-handle operating system.

We reported herein a copper-catalyzed trifluoromethylarylated cycloaddition of imidazoles and olefins using CF3SO2Cl as the radical source to synthesize highly functionalized tricyclic imidazoles. This procedure exhibits a wide range of substrate scope with 25%-93% isolated yields (36 examples). Mechanistic studies were carried out to support a free trifluoromethyl radical pathway.
