A general protocol has been developed for the Markovnikov-selective intermolecular hydrofunctionalization based on visible-light-mediated Co/Ru dual catalysis. The key feature involves the photochemical oxidation of an organocobalt(III) intermediate derived from hydrogen atom transfer, which is supported by electrochemical analysis, quenching studies and stoichiometric experiments. This unique redox process enables the efficient branch-selective alkylation of pharmaceutically important nucleophiles (phenols, sulfonamides and various N-heterocycles) using a wide range of alkenes including moderately electron-deficient ones. Moreover, light-gated polar functionalization via organocobalt species was demonstrated.

A mechanistically distinct, Ni/photoredox-catalyzed arylation of unprotected, native thiols (e.g., cysteine residues) is reported – a process initiated through a visible light-promoted, hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) event under ambient conditions.

Abstract The alkenylation of cyclic ethers with β-nitroalkenes using uranyl cation as a photocatalyst is reported. Previous studies revealed the feasibility of incorporating organic photocatalyst in the visible light mediated alkenylation, while the uranyl cation serves as an alternative photocatalyst candidate successfully accomplish this transformation through a different pathway. The reaction features the direct hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) process to activate alpha C(sp3)-H of cyclic ether, and consequently cyclic ether is coupled with β-nitroalkene to give the target product with F-selectivity through C-C bond formation.

AbstractRecent advances in intramolecular hydrogen-atom transfer (HAT) have demonstrated significant utility in C—H functionalization through highly reactive open-shell intermediates. The intramolecular transposition of radical reactivity from select functional groups to generate more stable carbon-centered radicals often proceeds with high regioselectivity, providing novel bond disconnections at otherwise inert and largely indistinguishable positions. This chapter explores the functional groups capable of intramolecular HAT to generate remote radicals and the transformations currently available to the synthetic chemist.
