Here we report a visible-light-promoted metal-free regioselective C3-H trifluoromehtylation reaction that proceeds via radical mechanism and which supported by control experiments. The combination of photoredox catalysis and hypervalent iodine reagent provides a practical approach for the present trifluoromethylation reaction and synthesis of a library of trifluoromethylated indazoles.

A transition-metal-free propargylation of ortho-quinone methides (o-QMs) with alkynyl zinc reagents was achieved. A conjugate alkynylation of an o-QM and subsequent cyclization sequence in the presence of KOt-Bu for the synthesis of 2,3-disubstituted benzofurans in one pot was developed. This efficient strategy exhibits good functional-group compatibility and gives moderate to good yields. The present reaction might serve as an attractive method for the synthesis of polysubstituted benzofurans.
