Abstract
The desulfonylative radical addition of tertiary alkyl groups to gem-difluoroalkenes by photoredox Ir-catalyst is described. This method exhibits broad substrate scope, affording structurally diverse (E)-fluoroalkene derivatives in a highly stereoselective manner. The resulting (E)-fluoroalkenes were converted into complex fused cyclic compounds by intramolecular cyclization reactions. Control experiments and theoretical calculations are consistent with a single Ir catalyst playing the dual role of generating radical species from sulfones via single electron transfer and mediating Z/E isomerization via energy transfer. A subset of fluoroalkenes provided Z stereoisomers with >90% selectivity, but the same alkenes could also be obtained as E isomers with high selectivity by taking advantage of a secondary Z to E photoisomerization.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
