A practical synthesis of α-bromo/iodo/chloroketones from olefins under visible-light irradiation conditions has been developed. In the presence of PhI(OAc)2 as promoter and under ambient conditions, the reactions of styrenes and triiodomethane undergo the transformation smoothly to deliver the corresponding α-iodoketones without additional photocatalyst in good yields under sunlight irradiation. Meanwhile, the reactions of styrenes with tribromomethane and trichloromethane generate the desired α-bromoketones and α-chloroketones in high yields by using Ru(bpy)3Cl2 as a photocatalyst under blue LED (450–455 nm) irradiation.

An operationally simple and safe synthesis of α-haloketones using KBr and KCl as nonhazardous halogen sources is reported. It involves an iron-catalysed reaction of alkenes with KBr/KCl using O2 as terminal oxidant under the irradiation of visible-light. This strategy avoids the risks associated with handling halo-contained electrophiles (Cl2, Br2, NCS, NBS). The process is tolerant to several functional groups, and extended to a range of substituted styrenes in up to 89% yield. A radical reaction pathway is proposed based on control experiments and spectroscopy studies.

Instead of screening reaction conditions by yield-based chemical trial-and-error, potential-based cyclic voltammetry was alternatively employed for optimization of electrochemical oxychlorination of alkenes. With this unconventional screening method, the catalyst system including catalysts, molar ratio of chloride sources and solvents were identified in a rational, time- and energy-efficient manner. The optimal catalytic system in combination with oxygen reduction reaction enabled broad substrate scopes for the desired transformation by taking advantages of persistent radical effect. UV-vis and CV titration experiments confirmed the in-situ formed catalytic species [CoCl5]. Moreover, cyclic voltammetry was applied to obtain mechanistic insights in our reaction system.
