However, synthetic strategies to incorporate TMFK into heterocyclic compounds are limited. In this study, we report a novel protocol for tandem photoredox-catalysed difunctionalisation of olefins bearing internal nucleophiles using bromotrifluoroacetone, followed by intramolecular cyclisation. The protocol involves the use of 1.0 mol% organophotocatalyst and zinc acetate as a bromide ion scavenger. Subsequent intramolecular cyclisation of the brominated intermediate is promoted by basic alumina or K<inf>2</inf>CO<inf>3</inf>. This method provides straightforward access to a wide range of TFMK-containing heterocycles, including oxazolines, benzoxazines, γ-lactones, and pyrrolidones, and can be feasible for designing reversible covalent inhibitors.
