Bifunctional Photocatalysts: Exploiting Proximity for Enhanced Reaction Performance
This review covers the application of the bifunctional approach to photocatalysis as a means to attain (enhanced) enantioselectivity, and, more in general, as a strategy to enhance the catalytic performance through an effective use of short‐lived reaction intermediates.

On the Reaction Mechanism of Nitrate Radical and DMPO in Non‐aqueous Photocatalytic Media
This work identifies 2‐oxo‐5,5‐dimethyl‐1‐pyrroline 1‐oxyl (DMPOX), formed via the selective oxidation of 5,5‐dimethyl‐1‐pyrroline N‐oxide (DMPO) by nitrate radicals (NO3•) in nonaqueous media, as a distinctive EPR fingerprint of NO3•. The DFT‐supported mechanism clarifies its formation pathway and highlights DMPOX detection as a robust tool for ...

Expedient Discovery of a Metallaphotoredox Cyanomethylation for Synthesizing α‐Aryl Nitriles
A metallaphotoredox cyanomethylation reaction has been developed for the synthesis of valuable α‐aryl nitrile intermediates. The methodology was successfully applied to diverse medicinally‐relevant substrates, providing an expedient route to anti‐cancer Senexin compounds, while also removing the need for toxic cyanide reagents. The mechanism was probed

Dearomative homocoupling of quinolines into 1,1',2,2',3,3',4,4'‐octahydro‐4,4'‐biquinoline (OHBQ) is reported. The photoexcited boron complex, in situ generated from quinoline, HB(pin), and KOtBu, enables the unprecedented homocoupling of tetrahydroquinolines that is challenging in the ground state, expanding the chemical diversity of OHBQ derivatives.

Visible‐light irradiation of nitro‐perylenediimide in the presence of triphenylphosphine reveals an unexpected pathway competing with the classical Cadogan cyclization. Mechanistic investigations uncover the rapid and selective formation of bay‐functionalized 1‐iminophosphorane‐12‐hydroxy perylenediimide derivatives.
