Abstract
Previous methods for selective halogenation of aliphatic C-H bonds generally required catalysts, additives, and the use of large amounts of solvents, leading to low atom economy and solvent pollution issues. We report herein a visible-light-driven bromination/chlorination of 3o C(sp3)-H bonds without using any catalyst or solvent. This method can functionalize C-H bonds with high site selectivity and excellent functional group tolerance, even in complex molecules. Additionally, the reaction can be easily scaled up to gram-level production without losing efficiency.
