Crombenin 1 is a spiropeltogynoid compound with a spiroacetal moiety. A similar structure was synthesized starting from an orthocarbonylphenoxyisochroman by a Norrish type II photocyclisation. With an isochroman compound, the aromatic ring induces benzyl radical formation to give chiefly a bicyclic [4.3.1] derivative. However, with the introduction of electron-withdrawing or bulky substituents at C-4′, this side reaction is limited and the spiranic product becomes preponderant. Keywords: acetals, isochroman, photocyclisation, spiroacetals.

This article describes direct photoalkylation of electron-rich aromatic compounds with diazo compoiunds. C-2 alkylated indoles and pyrroles are obtained with good yields even though the photocatalyst (Ru(bpy)3Cl2) loading is as low as 0.075 mol %. For substrates bearing electron-withdrawing substituents the addition of a catalytic amount of N,N-dimethyl-4-methoxyaniline is required. Both EWG-EWG and EWG-EDG substituted diazo esters are suitable as alkylating agents. The reaction selectivity and mechanistic experiments suggest that carbenes/carbenoid intermediates are not involved in the reaction pathway, instead radical formation is proposed.

Simultaneous sulfonylation/arylation of styrene derivatives is achieved in a photoredox-catalyzed three-component reaction using visible light. A broad variety of difunctionalized products is accessible in mostly excellent yields and high diastereoselectivity. The developed reaction is scalable and suitable for the modification of styrene-functionalized biomolecules. Mechanistic investigations suggest the transformation to be operating through a designed sequence of radical formation and radical combination.<br>

Ultraviolet irradiation of the title compound I in the presence of butylamine gave predominantly products of nucleophilic photosubstitution by the amine, i.e., nitroanilines IIa and IIb. Besides, small amounts of products of hydrolysis (phenol III) and reductive coupling (azoxybenzene IV) were also formed. Comparison of the overall photolysis rate of I with that of 3,4-dimethoxy-1-nitrobenzene (V) indicates a minor loss of reactivity, most probably due to some deviation from coplanarity of the activating nitro group and the aromatic ring.
