Oximes are valuable synthetic intermediates for the preparation of a variety of functional groups. To date, the stereoselective synthesis of oximes remains a major challenge, as most current synthetic methods either provide mixtures of E and Z isomers or furnish the thermodynamically preferred E isomer. Herein we report a mild and general method to achieve Z isomers of aryl oximes by photoisomerization of oximes via visible-light-mediated energy transfer (EnT) catalysis. Facile access to (Z)-oximes provides opportunities to achieve regio- and chemoselectivity complementary to those of widely used transformations employing oxime starting materials. We show an enhanced one-pot protocol for photocatalyzed oxime isomerization and subsequent Beckmann rearrangement that enables novel reactivity with alkyl groups migrating preferentially over aryl groups, reversing the regioselectivity of the traditional Beckmann reaction. Chemodivergent N- or O- cyclizations of alkenyl oximes are also demonstrated, leading to nitrones or cyclic oxime ethers, respectively.

A one-pot two-step oxidative process has been developed for the tert-butyl hydroperoxide mediated transformation of aldehydes and amines into amides catalyzed by copper(I) iodide and an N-heterocyclic carbene. The process is additive-free and does not require the amine to be transformed into its hydrochloride salts. The method is simple and practicable, has a broad substrate scope, and uses economical, feasible, and abundant reagents.

Aminals, the N,N analogues of acetals, have been thoroughly explored in organic chemistry, with a particular focus on heteroaromatic aldehyde lithiation. Nevertheless, the existing methodologies for their formation typically employ harsh conditions limiting their usefulness. In this work, we present an efficient and mild methodology for the preparation of aminals from aromatic aldehydes, including furanic platforms. These mild conditions allowed ease of access to a plethora of aminals and as such we set out to explore previously unaccessible potential applications. By studying the stability of various aminals, we were able to develop a simple aldehyde protecting group based on a commercial diamine which is deprotected under mind conditions. We developed a protocol for the scavenging of genotoxic aldehydes by taking advantage of our methodology and a diamine resin, as well as early studies on the development of a stimuli-responsive release system using a salycil aldehyde derived aminal.
