AbstractState-of-the-art non-natural photoenzymatic catalysis typically relies on either ultraviolet light activation or the formation of electron donor–acceptor complexes. Inspired by nature, herein we develop a biocatalytic scheme based on direct visible-light excitation of flavoprotein to achieve stereocontrolled intermolecular radical hydroarylation of alkenes with electron-rich arenes.

A palladium-catalyzed multicomponent cascade reaction of aryl iodides, oxanorbornadiene, and diborns to access (Z)-alkenylborons is reported. This transformation proceeds through the sequential carbopalladation/boronation/retro-Diels–Alder domino reaction. The oxanorbornadiene used in this reaction serves as an acetylene surrogate, which is generated via a retro-Diels–Alder reaction.
