Article Abstract

A visible-light-induced cascade cyclization of isocyanobiaryls with hydrosilanes has been developed for the synthesis of 6-silylated phenanthridines. Readily available hydrosilanes were employed as silyl radical precursors under room-temperature conditions. The merits of the transformation include operational simplicity, mild conditions, high atom economy, and good functional group compatibility.

A novel strategy for accessing unprecedented silyl/fluoroalkyl-embedded tetracyclic pyrrolizidinediones has been developed through the visible-light-induced cascade cyclization of 3-methyleneisoindolin-1-ones using hydrosilanes or fluoroalkylsulfinate salts as radical sources under redox-neutral conditions. This protocol features mild reaction conditions, operational simplicity, and excellent compatibility with various functional groups. A number of silyl/fluoromethyl-decorated tetracyclic pyrrolizidinedione frameworks were efficiently created.

Photocatalyst-Free Visible-Light-Induced Decarbonylation/Truce-Smiles Rearrangement Cascade to Access 2-Aminobenzophenones.

Org Lett

September 2025

Key Laboratory of Applied Chemistry of Chongqing Municipality, School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Southwest University, Chongqing 400715, China.

A visible-light-induced decarbonylation/Truce-Smiles rearrangement cascade has been developed for the direct synthesis of 2-aminobenzophenones. This protocol employs readily available isatins and sulfonyl chlorides as starting materials, enabling the construction of diverse 2-aminobenzophenone derivatives under mild conditions without the need for transition metal catalysts or photocatalysts. The reaction exhibits a broad substrate scope, excellent functional group tolerance, and high efficiency.

Natural photosynthesis, a quintessential energy conversion process sustaining life on Earth through its sophisticated multi-step energy transfer cascades, has inspired the development of artificial light-harvesting systems aimed at mimicking its efficiency and complexity. Here, we report a supramolecular energy transfer platform constructed electrostatic interactions between sodium polystyrene sulfonate (RSS) and a quaternary ammonium salt modified cyano-substituted phenylenevinylene derivative (PPTA) in HO medium, achieving a sequential four-step energy relay. Energy is sequentially transferred from the PPTA-RSS complex to eosin Y (EY), rhodamine B (RhB), sulforhodamine 101 (SR101), and cyanine 5 (Cy5), with stepwise enhancement in superoxide anion radical (O˙) generation efficiency.

Photoinduced Asymmetric Dearomative Hydroalkylation of Electron-Deficient Indoles with Alkyltrifluoroborates.

Org Lett

September 2025

Key Laboratory of Green Chemistry & Technology, Ministry of Education, College of Chemistry, Sichuan University, Chengdu 610064, China.

A visible-light-induced catalytic asymmetric dearomative hydroalkylation of electron-deficient indole derivatives with potassium alkyltrifluoroborates was realized under mild reaction conditions. A synergistic catalyst system involving organo-photocatalyst and chiral Lewis acid was employed to enable high efficiency and excellent stereocontrol, delivering a range of chiral 2,3-disubstituted indolines. Mechanistic studies revealed an oxidation-quenching-triggered enantioselective radical coupling/protonation cascade.
