    Abstract:
    A simple formylation reaction of aryl halides, aryl triflates, and vinyl bromides under synergistic nickel- and organic-dye-mediated photoredox catalysis is reported. Distinct from widely used palladium-catalyzed formylation processes, this reaction proceeds by a two-step mechanistic sequence involving initial in situ generation of the diethoxymethyl radical from diethoxyacetic acid by a 4CzIPN-mediated photoredox reaction. The formyl-radical equivalent then undergoes nickel-catalyzed substitution reactions with aryl halides and triflates and vinyl bromides to form the corresponding aldehyde products. Significantly, besides aryl bromides, less reactive aryl chlorides and triflates and vinyl halides serve as effective substrates for this process. Since the mild conditions involved in this reaction tolerate a plethora of functional groups, the process can be applied to the efficient preparation of diverse aromatic aldehydes.
