Herein, the first modular, dual catalytic difunctionalization of unactivated alkenes viz., but-3-en-1-ylbenzene, 3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl benzoate, pent-4-en-1-yl 2-[4-[(2-oxocyclopentyl)methyl]phenyl]propanoate, etc. via manganese-catalyzed radical ligand transfer (RLT) was reported. This RLT elementary step involves a coordinated nucleophile rebounding to a carbon-centered radical to form a new C-X bond in analogy to the radical rebound step in metalloenzymes. The protocol leverages the synergetic cooperation of both a photocatalyst and earth-abundant manganese complex to deliver two radical species in succession to minimally functionalized alkenes, enabling modular diversification of the radical intermediate by a high-valent manganese species capable of delivering various external nucleophiles. A broad scope (97 examples, including drugs/natural product motifs), mild conditions, and excellent chemoselectivity were shown for a variety of substrates and fluoroalkyl fragments. Mechanistic and kinetic studies provide insights into the radical nature of the dual catalytic transformation and support radical ligand transfer (RLT) as a new strategy to deliver diverse functionality selectively to carbon-centered radicals.
