Phosphonium ylides have shown their synthetic usefulness in important carbon–carbon bond formation processes. Our new strategy employs phosphonium ylides as novel carbyne equivalents and features a new approach for constructing carbon–carbon bonds from alkenes.

ZnxCd1−xS as a solid solution photocatalyst has attracted widespread attention for its unique adjustable band gap structure and good and stable performance. A novel synthesis approach for ZnxCd1−xS is still required to further improve its performance. In this study, we synthesized a series of ZnxCd1−xS (x = 0−1) solid solutions via an ultrasonication-assisted hydrothermal route. In comparison with conventional methods of preparation, the sample prepared by our innovative method showed enhanced photocatalytic activity for the degradation of a methyl orange (MO) solution under visible light due to its high crystallinity and small crystallite size. Furthermore, the composition and bandgap of ZnxCd1−xS can be tuned by adjusting the mole ratio of Zn2+/Cd2+. Zn0.3Cd0.7S shows the highest level of activity and stability for the degradation of MO with k = 0.85 h−1, which is 2.2 times higher than that of CdS. The balance between band gap structure-directed redox capacity and light absorption of Zn0.3Cd0.7S accounts for its high photocatalytic performance, both of which are determined by the composition of the solid solution. Also, a degradation mechanism of MO over the sample is tentatively proposed. This study demonstrates a new strategy to synthesize highly efficient sulfide photocatalysts.

A new strategy for catalytic deracemization is presented, wherein amine derivatives undergo spontaneous optical enrichment upon exposure to visible light in the presence of three distinct molecular catalysts. Initiated by an excited-state iridium chromophore, this reaction proceeds <i>via </i>a sequence of favorable electron, proton, and hydrogen atom transfer steps that serve to break and reform a stereogenic C–H bond. The enantioselectivity in these reactions is jointly determined by two independent stereoselective steps that occur in sequence within the catalytic cycle, giving rise to a composite selectivity that is higher than that of either step individually. These reactions represent a distinct and potentially general approach to creating out-of-equilibrium product distributions between substrate enantiomers using excited-state redox events.

We have prepared, isolated, and characterized a series of nitrobenzoxadiazole labelled polyisoprenoid alcohols. The coupling reaction employed was a dicyclohexylcarbodiimide mediated condensation between a carboxylic acid derivative of nitrobenzoxadiazole and the polyisoprenoid alcohols citronellol, solanesol, and dolichol. Upon exposure to visible light, a self-sensitized singlet oxygen "ene" reaction oxidized double bonds in the isoprene moiety. The rate of oxidation is greatly reduced in solvents where singlet oxygen is short-lived. Key words: nitrobenzoxadiazole, isoprenoid, dolichol, citronellol, solanesol, fluorescence labelling, singlet oxygen, ene reaction.
