Abstract
The visible-light and chiral-Lewis-acid synergistically catalyzed reductant-free asymmetric aza-Reformatsky reaction is described by Xiaoming Feng and co-workers in their Communication (e202500756). Control experiments revealed a direct SET process between excited state imine and α-iodo difluoromethyl carbonyl compound which prevents the use of reductant.
