A photoredox catalytic strategy has been described for the direct C2 trifluoromethylation of quinoline N-oxides. This reaction is compatible with a range of synthetically relevant functional groups for providing efficient synthesis of a variety of C2 trifluoromethyl quinoline N-oxides at room temperature. Mechanistic studies indicated that the reaction proceeds via a radical pathway.

A methodology for a radical Pictet–Spengler reaction promoted by visible light photoredox catalysis is described. This strategy furnishes tetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives bearing electron poor and electron rich substituents. The reaction proceeds at room temperature and with excellent regioselectivity for the 6-endo intramolecular cyclisation. This radical approach provides a complementary method for the synthesis of the tetrahydroisoquinoline scaffold with substitution patterns inaccessible via established thermal transformations.

A visible-light photoredox-catalyzed oxidation/[3+2] cycloaddition/oxidative aromatization cascade reaction of [(3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-2(1H)-yl)methyl]phosphonates and activated olefins or alkynes for the efficient synthesis of potentially biological active pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline-substituted phosphonates was developed. This transformation features mild reaction conditions (i.e., visible light irradiation, room temperature), molecular oxygen (O2) as a green oxidant, simple ‘one-pot’ operation.

<div>The Mizoroki−Heck reaction is one of the most efficient methods for alkenylation of</div><div>aryl, vinyl, and alkyl halides. Due to its innate nature, this protocol requires the employment of compounds possessing a halogen atom at the site of functionalization. However, the accessibility of organic molecules possessing a halogen atom at a particular site in aliphatic systems is extremely limited. Thus, a protocol that would allow a Heck reaction to occur at a specific non-functionalized C(sp3)−H site would be highly desirable.</div><div>Here, we report a radical relay Heck reaction which allows for a selective remote</div>alkenylation of aliphatic alcohols at unactivated β-, γ- and δ-C(sp3 20 )–H sites. The use of easily installable/removable Si-based auxiliary enables selective I-atom/radical translocation events at remote C−H sites followed by the Heck reaction. Notably, the reaction proceeds smoothly under mild visible light-mediated conditions at room temperature, producing highly modifiable and valuable alkenol products from readily available alcohols feedstocks. <br>

A visible-light-induced direct C–H alkylation of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines has been developed. It proceeds at room temperature by employing inexpensive Eosin Y as a photocatalyst and alkyl N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHP) esters as alkylation reagents. A variety of NHP esters derived from aliphatic carboxylic acids (primary, secondary, and tertiary) were tolerated in this protocol, giving the corresponding C-5-alkylated products in moderate to excellent yields. Mechanistic studies indicate that a radical decarboxylative coupling pathway was involved in this process.

Abstract We have developed visible-light photoredox-catalyzed C–O bond cleavage of diaryl ethers by an acidolysis with an aryl car-boxylic acid and a following one-pot hydrolysis. Two phenols are obtained from a diaryl ether at room temperature. The aryl carboxylic acid used for the acidolysis can be recovered. The key to success of the acidolysis is merging visible-light photore-dox catalysis with a new acridinium photocatalyst and Lewic acid catalysis with Cu(TMHD)2. Preliminary mechanistic studies indicate that the catalytic cycle occurs via a rare selective electrophilic attack of the generated aryl carboxylic radical on the electron-rich aryl ring of diphenyl ether. This transformation is applied to a gram-scale reaction and the model of 4-O-5 lignin linkages.

Electron-rich arenes react with aryl and alkyl disulfides in the presence of catalytic amounts of [Ir(dF(CF3)ppy)2(dtbpy)]PF6 and (NH4)2S2O8 under blue light irradiation to yield arylthiols. The reaction proceeds at room temperature and avoids the use of prefunctionalized arenes. Experimental evidence suggests a radical–radical cross coupling mechanism.
