Ir-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of racemic quinolinyl-substituted tertiary alcohols
A highly efficient stereodivergent reaction of racemic quinolinyl-substituted tertiary alcohols via Ir-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation has been realized.
Tunable ring-opening of 2H-azirines via visible-light-driven novel selective C–C/C–N or C![[double bond, length as m-dash]](https://www.rsc.org/images/entities/char_e001.gif)
N bond cleavage
A catalyst-free, visible-light-induced annulation of 2H-azirines and hydrazonyl chlorides via EDA activation affords 1,3,5-triazines or imidazoles. The 2H-azirine substitution pattern controls reactivity, giving a practical route to N-heterocycles.
Photocatalytic 3D skeletal editing of carboxylic acids via [4 + 1] cyclization for streamlined synthesis of unsaturated γ-lactams
Herein, we report a photocatalytic strategy for the three-dimensional skeletal editing of carboxylic acids via sequential deoxygenation. It converts structurally diverse carboxylic acids into biologically unsaturated γ-lactams.
