To develop a photocatalyst with catalytical activity for substrates with low reactivities is always highly desired. Herein, based on the principle of structure–property relationships, we rationally designed the natural product cercosporin, the naturally occurring perylenequinonoid pigment, to develop a novel organic perylenephotoreductant, hexacetyl reduced cercosporin (HARCP), through structural manipulation. Compared with cercosporin, HARCP shows prominent electrochemical and photophysical characteristics with greatly improved photoreductive activity, fluorescence lifetime and fluorescence quantum yield. These properties allowed HARCP as a powerful photoreductant to efficiently realize a series of benchmark reactions, including photoreduction, alkoxylation and hydroxylation to construct C–H and C–O bonds using aryl halides as substrates under mild conditions, all of which have never been achieved by the same photocatalyst. Thus, this study well supports the notion that the principle between structural manipulation and photocatalytic activity is of great significance to design customized photocatalysts for photoredox chemistry.

Energy transfer plays a special role in photocatalysis by utilizing the potential energy of the excited state through indirect excitation, in which a photosensitizer determines the thermodynamic feasibility of the reaction. Bioinspired by the energy-transfer ability of natural product cercosporin, here we developed a green and highly efficient organic photosensitizer HiBRCP (hexaisobutyryl reduced cercosporin) through structural modification of cercosporin. After structural manipulation, its triplet energy was greatly improved, and then, it could markedly promote the efficient geometrical isomerization of alkenes from the E-isomer to the Z-isomer. Moreover, it was also effective for energy-transfer-mediated organometallic catalysis, which allowed realization of the cross-coupling of aryl bromides and carboxylic acids through efficient energy transfer from HiBRCP to nickel complexes. Thus, the study on the relationship between structural manipulation and their photophysical properties provided guidance for further modification of cercosporin, which could be applied to more meaningful and challenging energy-transfer reactions.

A novel strategy for visible light-mediated esterification of amides with boronic acids in air has been described. This method is characterized by mild reaction conditions and low cost owing to no need of any catalyst, which implies high potential utility in late-stage functionalization of amide drugs and materials.

Acyl-transfer catalysis is a frequently used tool to promote the formation of carboxylic acid derivatives, which are important synthetic precursors and target compounds in organic synthesis. However, there have been only a few structural motifs known to efficiently catalyze the acyl-transfer reaction. Herein, we introduce a different acyl-transfer catalytic paradigm based on the tropolone framework. We show that tropolonate salts, due to their strong nucleophilicity and photochemical activity, can promote the coupling reaction between alcohols and carboxylic acid anhydrides or chlorides to give products under thermal or blue light photochemical conditions. Kinetic studies and density functional theory calculations suggest interesting mechanistic insights for reactions promoted by this acyl-transfer catalytic system.
Selectivity in the photo-fries rearrangement of some aryl benzoates in green and sustainable media. Preparative and mechanistic studies

Irradiation of a series of p-substituted aryl benzoates under N2 atmosphere in homogeneous and micellar media was investigated by means of steady-state condition and of time-resolved spectroscopy. A notable selectivity in favor of the 2-hydroxybenzophenone derivatives was observed in micellar media. The benzophenone derivatives were the main photoproduct. On the other hand, in homogeneous media (cyclohexane, acetonitrile, and methanol) the observed product distribution was entirely different, viz. substituted 2-hydroxybenzophenones, p-substituted phenols, benzyl and benzoic acid were found. The binding constants in the surfactant were also measured and NOESY experiments showed that the aryl benzoates were located in the hydrophobic core of the micelle. Laser flash photolysis experiments led to the characterization of both p-substituted phenoxy radical and substituted 2-benzoylcyclohexadienone transients in homogeneous and micellar environment.

Substitutions such as acylations, arylations, and alkylations are some of the most commonly run reactions for building complex molecules. However, the requirement of a stoichiometric base to scavange acid by-products creates significant challenges when operating in continuous flow due to solid handling issues associated with precipitating base·HX salts. We present a general and simple strategy to overcome these solid handling issues through the use of acid scavenging organic bases that generate low- to moderate-melting ionic liquids upon protonation. The application of these bases towards the most commonly run substitutions are demonstrated, enabling reactions to be run in flow without requiring additional equipment, specific solvents, or dilute reaction conditions to prevent clogging.

Poly(3,4-dimethyl-5-vinylthiazolium) iodide was used as a polymer precatalyst in the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) and phenazine for the oxidative esterification of aldehydes with alcohols. Selective functionalization of OH groups was achieved in the presence of NH2 groups. The poly(thiazolium) iodide/DBU/phenazine system exhibited excellent catalytic activity and could be reused five times without loss of activity.

A general and excellent acylation reagent, diacyl disulfide, was uncovered for efficient ester formation enabled by DMAP (4-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyridine) catalysis. This protocol offered a promising synthetic platform on site-selective acylation of phenolic and primary aliphatic hydroxyl groups, which greatly expanded the realm of protecting group chemistry. The importance of the reagent was also reflected by its excellent moisture tolerance, high efficiency, and potential in synthetic chemistry and biologically meaningful natural product modification.
