Abstract
A halogen-bond-based electron donor–acceptor (EDA) complex-promoted perfluoroalkylative cyclization of N -phenylmethacrylohydrazides was developed. In this reaction, 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) functions as an electron donor and interacts with perfluoroiodocarbon to form the EDA complex, which produces a perfluoroakyl radical after irradiation by blue LEDs. A series of perfluoroalkylated pyrazol-5-ones were obtained in moderate to good yields under mild conditions without the requirement of any external photocatalyst.
