A visible-light photocatalytic radical addition reaction of dihydroquinoxalin-2-ones to trifluoromethyl ketones has been established using Ru(bpy)3Cl2 as photocatalyst, acetonitrile as solvent, and HP Single Blue LED as the source of light. The reaction provides a straightforward approach to the synthesis of dihydroquinoxalin-2-ones bearing a trifluoromethyl-substituted tertiary alcohol moiety in moderate to good yields under mild conditions.
