  • Description: <jats:p>Photocatalytic coupling reaction between a TMS enol ether and a <jats:italic>gem</jats:italic>-bromonitroalkane furnishes a ketone bearing β-NO<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> group on a tertiary carbon, which is easily converted into a β-NH<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> ketone. α-Nitro radicals are intermediates.</jats:p>
