Popis: A visible-light-induced photocatalytic strategy for the synthesis of flavonoids has been developed through the deoxygenative/cyclization reaction of salicylic acid derivatives with aryl acetylene using diphenyl sulfide as an O-transfer reagent. Based on the controlled experiments, the mechanism of visible-light-induced free radical coupling cyclization was proposed. The protocol obtained 51 flavonoids in good yields and has been successfully applied to the synthesis of some natural flavones.
