RESUMO
Photomediated Giese reactions are at the forefront of radical chemistry, much like the classical tin-mediated Giese reactions were nearly forty years ago. With the global recognition of organometallic photocatalysts for the mild and tunable generation of carbon-centered radicals, chemists have developed a torrent of strategies to form previously inaccessible radical intermediates that are capable of engaging in intermolecular conjugate addition reactions. This Review summarizes advances in photoredox-mediated Giese reactions since 2013, with a focus on the breadth of methods that provide access to crucial carbon-centered radical intermediates that can engage in radical conjugate addition processes.

A general method is described for the coupling of (hetero)aryl bromides with O-alkyl sulfamate esters. The protocol relies on catalytic amounts of nickel and photoexcitable iridium complexes and proceeds under visible light irradiation at ambient temperature. This technology engages a broad range of simple and complex O-alkyl sulfamate ester substrates under mild conditions. Furthermore, it is possible to avoid undesirable N-alkylation, which was found to plague palladium-based protocols for N-arylation of O-alkyl sulfamate esters. These investigations represent the first use of sulfamate esters as nucleophiles in transition metal-catalyzed C-N coupling processes.
