Abstract

Abstract : The Cover Feature shows the combination of flow chemistry and photoredox catalysis for the hydroper­fluoroalkylation of alkenes and alkynes. Organic dye (Rhodamine B) and green light promote this safe and scalable transformation. Perfluorinated sulfilimino iminiums, readily accessible reagents through a one‐pot multigram procedure, are used as source of radicals. Their modularity allows for the monofluoro‐, difluoro‐, trifluoro‐, and perfluoroalkylation of unsaturated systems. We choose the tubbing frontage of the French National Art Center Georges Pompidou to symbolize our flow reaction. More information can be found in the Communication by G. Dagousset, E. Magnieret al.
