A one-pot multicomponent green process is investigated for the synthesis of perfluoroalkylated cyclic carbonate which merges the photo-promoted Atom Transfer Radical Addition (ATRA) of a perfluoroalkyl iodide (Rf-I) onto allyl alcohols with the Lewis-base-promoted carboxylative cyclization. The evolution of the complex mixture during the reaction was monitored by in situ ATR-IR and Raman spectroscopies that provided insights into the reaction mechanism. The effect on the kinetics and the carbonate yields of key parameters such as the stoichiometry of reagents, the nature of the Lewis base and the solvent, the temperature and the pressure were evaluated. It was found that high yields were obtained using strong Lewis bases that played both the role of activating the allyl alcohol for the generation of the allyl carbonate in the presence of CO2 and promoting the ATRA reaction through the activation of C4F9I by halogen bonding. This protocol was also extended to various unsaturated alcohols.
