Abstract
In the last few years, many reagents and protocols have been developed to allow for the efficient fluorofunctionalization of a diverse set of scaffolds ranging from alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, and (hetero)arenes. The concomitant rise of organofluorine chemistry and visible light-mediated synthesis have synergistically expanded the fields and have mutually benefitted from developments in both fields. In this context, visible light driven formations of radicals containing fluorine have been a major focus for the discovery of new bioactive compounds. This review details the recent advances and progress made in visible light-mediated fluoroalkylation and heteroatom centered radical generation.

Abstract
Fluoroalkylation is a crucial synthetic process that enables the modification of molecules with fluoroalkyl groups, which can enhance the properties of compounds and have potential applications in medicine and materials science. The utilization of visible light-induced, metal-free methods is of particular importance as it provides an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional methods and eliminates the potential risks associated with metal-catalyst toxicity. This Account describes our studies on visible light-induced, metal-free fluoroalkylation processes, which include the use of organic photocatalysts or EDA complexes. We have utilized organophotocatalysts such as Nile red, tri(9-anthryl)borane, and an indole-based tetracyclic complex, as well as catalyst-free EDA chemistry through photoactive halogen bond formation or an unconventional transient ternary complex formation with nucleophilic fluoroalkyl source. A variety of π-systems including arenes/heteroarenes, alkenes, and alkynes have been successfully fluoroalkylated under the developed reaction conditions.

Abstract
Construction of challenging and important all-carbon quaternary centers has received growing attention. Herein, with oxalates as activating groups for tertiary alcohols, we report photoredox-catalyzed gem-difluoroallylation to construct all-carbon quaternary centers enabled by efficient tertiary radical addition to α-trifluoromethyl alkenes. This transformation shows good functional group tolerance for both α-trifluoromethyl alkenes and oxalates. Moreover, this strategy is also successfully applied to the synthesis of monofluoralkenes from the corresponding electron-rich gem-difluoroalkenes and cesium tertiary alkyl oxalates under modified conditions.

Abstract
Trifluoromethylation reaction is one of the significant and practical organic chemical reactions, and the design and discovery of novel trifluoromethylation reagents have been attracting more and more attention. Trifluoromethyl-substituted organic hydride compounds (XH) have the potential to be novel trifluoromethylation reagents in organic synthesis due to the favorable tendency of XH˙+ releasing ˙CF3 to form stable aromatic structures in terms of thermodynamics. The key elementary step of the trifluoromethylation is the radical cation (XH˙+) generation by catalysis or single-electron activation releasing ˙CF3 to form a stable aromatic structure, which also provides the thermodynamic driving force of the chemical process. In this work, 47 new trifluoromethylation reagent candidates of XHs were designed and calculated for the Gibbs free energy and activation free energy [ΔG‡RD(XH˙+)] of XH˙+ releasing ˙CF3 using the density functional theory (DFT) method, in order to quantitatively measure the reactivity of XHs as trifluoromethylation reagents, and to establish the molecular library as well as reactivity database of novel trifluoromethylation reagents for synthetic chemists. According to the and ΔG‡RD(XH˙+) values, all the XHs can be reasonably divided into 3 classes, including class 1 (excellent trifluoromethylation reagents), class 2 (potential trifluoromethylation reagents) and class 3 (not trifluoromethylation reagents). To our delight, 15 XHs with a 1,4-dihydropyridine structure and 3 XHs with a 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-one structure are identified to be novel excellent and potential trifluoromethylation reagents, respectively, according to their reactivity data. The relationship between the structural features, including methylation, heteroatom, substituents, conjugated structure and so on, and the reactivity of XHs as trifluoromethylation reagents are also discussed in this work. The computation results indicate that trifluoromethyl-substituted 1,4-dihydropyridine compounds and 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-one analogues could be possible trifluoromethylation reagents in organic synthesis. This work may provide the theoretical basis and references for discovering organic hydride compounds as novel reagents for trifluoromethylation or other alkylation reactions.

Abstract
A radical chain isomerization of N-sulfonyl ynamides to isolable ketenimines is developed, featuring mild reaction conditions, a high efficiency, ∼100% atom economy, a broad substrate scope, and column chromatography-free workup in most cases. Meanwhile, an unprecedented dearomatization of furans is achieved by the radical chain isomerization-triggered aza-Claisen rearrangement, providing highly chemo-, regio-, stereo-, and diastereoselective access to functionalized quaternary nitriles.
