A [4+2] cycloaddition of photogenerated aza-ortho-quinone methides with formaldimines is described for the synthesis of perfluoroalkylated tetrahydroquinazolines. Key to this process is the photocatalytic radical-mediated generation of aza-o-QMs from 2-vinylanilines and perfluoroalkyl radical precursors as well as the in situ release of formaldimines from 1,3,5-triazinanes.
