Photoinduced three-component reaction: a convenient access to 3-arylacetals or 3-arylketals.
A mild and versatile method for the photoinduced three-component synthesis of 3-arylacetals and ketals is presented. Desired targets are smoothly obtained by irradiating aromatic halides or esters in alcohols, in the presence of vinyl ethers.
