Catalyst‐Free, Radical Tri‐ and Difluoromethylation of Isocyanides and N‐Arylacrylamides Using Rotating Magnetic Field and Metal Rods

Comprehensive Summary The pursuit of sustainable and environmentally benign synthetic methods continues to challenge organic chemists. Herein, we introduce a magnetoredox system for tri‐ and difluoromethylation of isocyanides and N‐arylacrylamides using a rotating magnetic field and steel rods. This magnetoredox approach enables facile synthesis of functionalized phenanthridines and oxindoles without the need for catalysts and additives under mild conditions. Such a system potentially represents an attractive strategy for selective formation of bonds through multifaceted regulation of magnetic intensity, rotating frequency, and rod size.
