Abstract
An efficient, mild, and atom-economical synthesis of benzo[b]fluorenols from 1,6-enynes has been developed under photocatalytic conditions. A single P/N heteroleptic Cu(I)-photosensitizer might exhibit both energy-transfer and photoredox catalytic activities in the formation of benzo[b]fluorenols.
