The first example of constructing a Csp3-Csp bond with substituted Hantzsch ester and Meyer nitrile is reported. When benziodoxole-activated alkyne was applied as the alkynyl donor, products containing Csp3-Csp bonds involving primary, secondary, and tertiary carbon centers were achieved in up to 97% yields. K2S2O8 was the optimum radical initiator in this reaction.
