[0089] In a nitrogen atmosphere, olefin S1 (67 mg, 0.200 mmol, 1.00 equiv), second substrate S2 PhSO2Na (66 mg, 0.400 mmol, 2.0 equiv), third substrate S3 EtOH (46 mg, 1.0 mmol, 5.0 equiv), photocatalyst 4CzIPN (2 mol%), and organic solvent DCE were added to a reaction flask. The blue 30 W LED light was turned on, and the bulb was 5 - 10 cm away from the reaction flask. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 48 h, and the reaction was monitored by TLC (thin - layer chromatography). After the reaction was completed, it was diluted with ethyl acetate and then extracted with water and saturated brine respectively. The organic layer was dried, and the organic phase was concentrated. The crude product was directly obtained by column chromatography with V petroleum ether / V ethyl acetate = 10:1 to give 59 mg (yellow solid) of product compound P6, with a yield of 88% and a purity of ≥95%.
