Abstract While aldehydes represent a classic class of electrophilic synthons, the corresponding acyl radicals are inherently nucleophilic, which exhibits umpolung reactivity. Generation typically requires noble metal catalysts or excess oxidants to be added. Herein, we report convenient and green approach access radicals, capitalizing on neutral eosin Y-enabled hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) photocatalysis with aldehydes. The generated underwent SOMOphilic substitutions various functionalized...
