Photoredox-catalyzed branch-selective pyridylation of alkenes for the expedient synthesis of Triprolidine

Alkenylpyridines are versatile building blocks for the synthesis of drugs and other complex molecular structures. Here, the authors show a branch-selective pyridylation of alkenes via sulfinate-assisted photoredox catalysis and showcase its utility in an expedient synthesis of Triprolidine.
