Recent theoretical efforts to elucidate the origin of enantioselectivity in transition metal‐catalyzed propargylic substitution reactions are highlighted in this review. ABSTRACT In recent years, asymmetric catalytic propargylic substitution reactions have undergone remarkable development, enabling the construction of chiral carbon centers adjacent to ...

Visible-Light Photoredox Catalyzed Formation of Triarylethylenes Using a Low-Cost Photosensitizer
Visible-light photoredox catalysis using biacetyl (BA) as a low-cost photosensitizer enables the efficient formation of triarylethylenes (TAEs) via a Mizoroki–Heck-type coupling. The reaction proceeds efficiently in acetonitrile upon blue LED irradiation

Generation of a Ground‐State Electron Donor Utilizing Stored Light Energy
Chemically stored light energy enables the generation of dianion reductants (∼−2.7 V) from vicinal diols derived from diaryl ketone photodimerization. These ground‐state electron donors efficiently reduce challenging substrates at room temperature, including aryl bromides, alkyl iodides, and sulfonamides.

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.

Dihydroquinazolinones by Titanocene‐Catalyzed Reductive Radical Addition to Quinazolinones
Tri‐ and tetracyclic dihydroquinazolinones or quinazolinones by titanocene catalysis: A highly diastereoselective and efficient reductive radical addition to quinazolinones enables an unprecedented entry to pharmaceutically relevant dihydroquinazolinones by avoiding the interception of radical intermediates prior to the slow radical addition.

Photochemical Cyclization of Tertiary Buta‐2,3‐dienamides to β‐Lactams Upon Triplet Energy Transfer
Energy transfer is the key to the successful photocyclization of the title compounds to 3,4‐disubstituted 2‐azetidinones. If the substituent at the nitrogen atom is primary (R2 = H), trans products are formed exclusively. The triplet state of xanthen‐9‐one (XT) was found to be quenched by an allene amide (R, R2 = H, R1 = Bn, and R3 = Ph) with a ...

Solar‐driven photocatalytic CO2 conversion faces charge dynamics and spectral utilization limits. In this study, the nested Cu/CuSe heterostructure effectively enhances near‐infrared absorption, suppress charge carrier recombination, and improve CO production yield and selectivity through the photothermal–photocatalytic synergy. ABSTRACT Photocatalytic

We report a carbonylation‐homolysis process to access acyl radicals that can undergo decarboxylation or cyclization onto tethered alkenes. In both cases, ligands and additives are shown to influence the outcome to give saturated or unsaturated products, in some cases with isomerization of the initial products.
