Continuous Flow Organocatalytic C-H Functionalization and Cross-Dehydrogenative Coupling Reactions: Visible Light Organophotocatalysis for Multicomponent Reactions and C-C, C-P Bond Formations

A continuous flow procedure for the efficient metal-free, visible light photoredox-catalyzed alpha-functionalization of tertiary amines has been developed. Rose Bengal has been identified as an effective organic photocatalyst for continuous flow C-C and C-P bond formations as well as multicomponent reactions.
