Abstract
Abstract The hydroalkylation of nitroalkenes and β‐nitroacrylates via a photocatalytic strategy has been optimised under both batch and continuous flow conditions. This target has been achieved by exploiting the potentialities of the decatungstate anion as a versatile hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) photocatalyst for the generation of alkyl radicals from aliphatic heterocycles, amides and cycloalkanes. magnified image
