Surprisingly, the photocatalytic activation of ethers by H-abstraction and addition of the generated radicals to iminium ions formed in situ from aldehydes and anilines predominantly yielded the products of methoxy activation for dimethoxymethane and 1,2-dimethoxyethane. Various anilines and aromatic as well as aliphatic aldehydes are suitable reaction partners for this three-component photoreaction (Porta-type process) which also provides a simple access to 1,2-aminoalcohols.
