A metal-free, photoredox-catalyzed three-component cyanoalkylfluorination of alkenes under mild and redox-neutral conditions is reported. This protocol features use of readily available alkenes, oxime esters, and cost-effective nucleophilic fluoride reagents, giving diverse cyanoalkylfluorinated products with generally good yields. Excellent functional group tolerance and mild reaction conditions also render this protocol suitable for cyanoalkylfluorination of pharmaceutically relevant molecule-derived alkene.
