A nickel/visible light photoredox co-catalyzed decarboxylative thiolation reaction of carboxylic acids has been developed. This odorless sulfenylation reaction proceeded well via a nickel/photoredox cooperative catalysis pathway under very mild conditions.

A convenient, efficient and practical visible-light-induced decarboxylative iodination of aromatic carboxylic acids has been developed, and the corresponding aryl iodides were obtained in good yields. The method shows some advantages including the use of readily available aromatic carboxylic acids as the starting materials, simple and mild conditions, high efficiency, wide substrate scope and tolerance of various functional groups.

A protocol for stereoselective C-radical addition to a chiral glyoxylate-derived sulfinyl imine was developed through visible light-promoted photoredox catalysis, providing a convenient method for the synthesis of unnatural α-amino acids. The developed protocol allows the use of ubiquitous carboxylic acids as radical precursors without prior derivatization. The protocol utilizes near-stoichiometric amounts of the imine and the acid radical precursor in combination with a catalytic amount of an organic acridinium-based photocatalyst. The mechanism for the developed transformation is discussed and the stereodetermining radical addition step was studied by the DFT calculations.

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
