Conventional methods for forming C(sp3)−C(sp3) bonds via radical-radical coupling pathways often suffer from poor selectivity, limiting their practicality in synthetic applications. Herein, the authors report a single electron transfer strategy that enables the cleavage of amine α-C − H bonds and heterobenzylic C − O bonds to form C(sp3)−C(sp3) bonds.
