A nitrogen-centered radical-mediated strategy is described to synthesize functionalized 3-acylcoumarins. This process is enabled by visible-light-induced acylation/cyclization reactions of alkynoates with various acyl oxime compounds in acetonitrile. The difunctionalization of...

An unprecedented visible-light inspired selective radical azidation of unactivated and diverse substituted vinylarenes with sulfonium iodate reagent has been realized. The intrinsic radical process triggered by light tolerated several synthetically useful functionalities enabling two new carbon-hetero bonds which display distinctive late-stage applications to biologically relevant scaffolds.

A three-component radical process is reported that, by coupling alkyl chlorides, maleimides, and heteroaromatic fragments, installs multiple biologically relevant heterocycles within complex cascade products. This method, which generates radicals via an SN2-based photochemical catalytic mechanism, activates substrates incompatible with or inert to classical radical-generating strategies.

Classical cyclopropylcarbinyl radical clock reactions have been widely applied to conduct the mechanistic studies on probing radical process for a long time; however, alkylidenecyclopropanes, which have a similar molecular structure...

Thiourea dioxide is applied as the source of sulfonyl groups for the efficient synthesis of heteroaryl sulfones and sulfonamides from heteroaryl halides under visible light irradiation. This transformation proceeds through a radical process via heteroaryl sulfinate intermediates, as supported by EPR spectroscopy and DFT calculations.

The difunctionalization of alkenes involving a trifluoromethylthio group (SCF3) for the conversion of versatile and readily available olefins into structurally more complex molecules has been successfully studied. However, the disproportionate dithiolation of alkenes is unknown. Herein, a transition-metal-free protocol is presented for the vicinal trifluoromethylthio–thiolation of unactivated alkenes via a radical process under mild conditions with a broad substrate scope and excellent tolerance.

A transition-metal-free visible-light photoredox-catalyzed decarboxylative alkylation of benzylic C-(sp3)−H bonds of N-aryl tetrahydroisoquinolines is reported. The developed methodology tolerates various functional groups and proceeds smoothly without the requirement of stoichiometric oxidants. A preliminary mechanistic study indicated that a radical process is involved in the reaction.

Imides are prepared conveniently by visible-light-driven oxidations of various N-alkylamides under mild conditions. The majority of the reactions proceed efficiently by using Oxone as the oxidant in the presence of a catalytic amount of KBr in H2O/CH2Cl2 under irradiation by an 8 W white LED at room temperature. Experimental studies suggest that an imine, obtained from the substrate amide via a radical process, is the key intermediate.
