AbstractA photocatalyzed and highly efficient trifluoromethylation of N-arylvinylsulfonamides using commercially available CF3SO2Cl as the trifluoromethyl radical source under blue LEDs is reported. The reaction proceeds through radical cyclization under mild conditions. An investigation of the substrate scope is performed to establish a general, synthetically useful protocol for the synthesis of novel trifluoromethylated 1,3-dihydrobenzo[c]isothiazole 2,2-dioxides in moderate to high yields. This method is also successfully applied for the synthesis of difluoromethylated and trifluoroethylated 1,3-dihydrobenzo[c]isothiazole 2,2-dioxides in good to excellent yields.

Visible light photoredox catalysis has recently emerged as a powerful tool for the development of new and valuable chemical transformations under mild conditions. Visible-light promoted enantioselective radical transformations of imines and iminium intermediates provide new opportunities for the asymmetric synthesis of amines and asymmetric β-functionalization of unsaturated carbonyl compounds. In this review, the advance in the catalytic asymmetric radical functionalization of imines, as well as iminium intermediates, are summarized. 1 Introduction 2 The enantioselective radical functionalization of imines 2.1 Asymmetric reduction 2.2 Asymmetric cyclization 2.3 Asymmetric addition 2.4 Asymmetric radical coupling 3 The enantioselective radical functionalization of iminium ions 3.1 Asymmetric radical alkylation 3.2 Asymmetric radical acylation 4 Conclusion

AbstractThe development of highly efficient C–C bond formation methods for the synthesis of ethyl 2-(2,4-dichloro-5-fluorobenzoyl)-3-(dimethylamino)acrylate 1 in continuous flow processes has been described, which is based on the concept of rapid and efficient activation of carboxylic acid. 2,4-Dichloro-5-fluorobenzoic acid is rapidly converted into highly reactive 2,4-dichloro-5-fluorobenzoyl chloride by treating with inexpensive and less-toxic solid bis(trichloromethyl)carbonate. And then it rapidly reacts with ethyl 3-(dimethylamino)acrylate to afford the desired 1. This process can be performed under mild conditions. Compared with the traditional tank reactor process, less raw material consumption, higher product yield, less reaction time, higher operation safety ensured by more the environmentally friendly procedure, and process continuity are achieved in the continuous-flow system.

We have developed an unprecedented route to carbazole by a visible light-photocatalysed formal (4+2) cycloaddition of indole-derived bromides and alkynes. Using this method, a wide range of highly functionalised carbazoles were produced in good yields under mild conditions.
