“…The significant features of visible light, such as its eco-compatibility, inexpensive nature, universal availability, nontoxicity, and operational simplicity, show increasing demand for sustainable synthetic conversions . α-Ketoamides and their derivatives are commonly found in numerous natural products and biologically significant compounds, spanning antiviral, anti-HRV, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial drugs . In addition, α-ketoamides and their derivatives are commonly used for the preparation of fluorescent probes for the monitoring of pathological conditions, such as cancer or Parkinson’s disease, including prodrugs, and for the synthesis of some photolabeling agents or fluorophores/components of functional materials .…”
