A solution to these problems using organophotoredox catalysis, enabling a direct, modular and sustainable preparation of α-(di)substituted γ-arylamines, including challenging electron-neutral and moderately electron-rich aryl groups was reported. A broad range of functionalities were tolerated, and the reactions was run on multigram scale in continuous flow. The method was applied to a concise, protecting-group-free synthesis of the blockbuster drug Fingolimod, as well as a phosphonate mimic of its in-vivo active form (by iterative α-C-H functionalization of ethanolamine). The reaction was sequenced with an intramol. N-arylation to provided a general and modular access to valuable (spirocyclic) 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthyridines. Mechanistic and kinetic studies supportes an irreversible hydrogen atom transfer activation of the alkylamine by the azidyl radical and some contribution from a radical chain. The reaction was photon-limited and exhibits a zero-order dependence on amine, azide, and photocatalyst, with a first-order dependence on styrene.
