A metal‐free heterogeneous protocol is established herein for the synthesis of value‐added γ‐amino acid scaffolds via carbocarboxylation of alkenes with CO2 and alkylamines under visible light irradiation. The protocol shows broad substrate scope under mild reaction conditions and good stability of the catalyst for recycle tests. Moreover, the methodology could be feasible to the late‐stage derivatization of several natural products, enriching the chemical arsenal for practical application. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A sustainable system for the carbocarboxylation of olefins with redox-active esters and CO2via visible-light-induced photoredox catalysis has been developed using metal-free boron carbonitride (BCN) as the photocatalyst. The scheme introduces versatile alkyl groups (including primary, secondary, and tertiary) and CO2 into the C–C double bond in a fully regioselective manner to produce valuable carboxylic derivatives with excellent yields.
