Atom transfer radical addition (ATRA), cyclization (ATRC), and polymerization (ATRP) are valuable synthetic methods for the functionalization of olefins. With the advent of photoredox catalysis, visible-light became a popular tool for the initiation of these reactions. We have developed a protocol that enables easy access to distally functionalized pyrrolidines employing blue-light mediated atom transfer radical [3+2] cyclization. The reaction is scalable, proceeds at very mild conditions. tolerates various functional groups, and provides the corresponding products in good to excellent yields. If rigid olefins are utilized as the reaction partners, the products can be isolated as single diastereomers. The mechanistic investigations provide strong support for an energy-transfer mechanism.

Organic transformations mediated by photoredox catalysis have been at the forefront of reaction discovery. Recently, it has been demonstrated that binuclear Au(I) bisphosphine complexes, such as [Au2(μ-dppm)2]X2, are capable of mediating electron transfer to nonactivated bromoalkanes for the generation of a variety of alkyl radicals. The transfer reactions of bromine, derived from nonactivated bromoalkanes, are largely unknown. Therefore, we propose that unique metal-based mechanistic pathways are at play, as this binuclear gold catalyst has been known to produce Au(III) Lewis acid intermediates. The scope and proposed mechanistic overview for the formal bromine atom transfer reaction of nonactivated bromoalkanes mediated by photoredox Au(I) catalysis is presented. The methodology presented afforded good yields and a broad scope which include examples using bromoalkanes and iodoarenes.
