The photoalkylation reactions, enabled solely by a chiral primary amine catalyst, provided convenient constructions of all-carbon quaternary stereocenters with good activity and high enantioselectivity. Mechanism studies revealed α direct photolytic radical chain process under visible light irradiation.展开更多
