An organophotoredox-catalyzed redox-neutral cascade involving N-(acyloxy)phthalimides and maleimides

Abstract

An organophotoredox-catalyzed reduction/addition/oxidation cascade of N-protected maleimides and N-(acyloxy)phthalimides is documented. The mild and efficient redox-neutral process involves hitherto unknown Giese-type addition of aryloxy-alkyl radicals on the N-protected maleimides and...

Multicomponent Synthesis of Biologically Relevant S-Aryl Dithiocarbamates Using Diaryliodonium Salts

“…Such a cascade strategy would be novel, highly efficient, and fascinating from the perspective of green chemistry and sustainable synthesis. As part of our program to develop metal-free cascade annulations and driven by our interest in hypervalent iodine­(III) reagents, , we herein disclose a hitherto unknown metal-free one-pot multicomponent coupling between diaryliodonium salts, carbon disulfide, and amines to provide biologically relevant S -aryl dithiocarbamates in an efficient fashion (Scheme d).…”

Visible-Light Promoted Regioselective Oxygenation of Quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones Using O2 as an Oxidant

“…Finding sustainable and step-economic strategies for synthesizing organic compounds has recently become a trending research topic in synthetic organic chemistry. − From this perspective, visible-light photocatalysis represents one of the essential cutting-edge techniques which has gained significant popularity. − Photocatalysts can trigger diverse chemical transformations due to their single-electron transfer capability. − Among the photocatalysts used for organic transformations, metal-free organic dyes − are inexpensive and easy to handle compared to highly expensive and relatively toxic transition-metal-based photocatalysts …”

CsPbBr3 Perovskite Photocatalyst in Chemodivergent Functionalization of N-Methylalkanamides Using CBr4

“…The use of organic dyes as photocatalysts has been one of the most exciting developments in the field of photocatalytic organic transformations in recent years. Organic dyes are attractive photocatalysts due to their low cost, simple synthesis, and tunable properties. − …”
