An environmentally benign, cost-efficient and practical methodology for the room temperature synthesis of 2-arylacetophenones in water has been discovered. The facile and efficient transformation involves the oxidative radical addition of arylhydrazines with α-aryl vinyl azides in the presence of H2O2 (as a radical initiator) and PEG-800 (as a phase-transfer catalyst). From the viewpoint of green chemistry and organic synthesis, the present protocol is of great significance because of using cheap, non-toxic and readily available starting materials and reagents as well as amenability to gram-scale synthesis, which provides an attractive strategy to access 2-arylacetophenones.

Photopharmacology uses molecular photoswitches to establish control over the action of bioactive molecules. The application of photopharmacology in the research of invertebrate sodium channels has not been investigated. Here we report several photochromic ligands of metaflumizone. One ligand, termed ABM04, underwent reversible trans-cis isomerization under ultraviolet or blue light irradiation. cis-ABM04 had excellent larvicidal activity against mosquito larvae with an LC50 value of 4.39 μM and showed insecticidal activity against Mythimna separata with an LC50 value of 7.19 μM. However, trans-ABM04 was not found to have biological activity. ABM04 (10 μM) can induce depolarization of dorsal unpaired median neurons and enable the real-time photoregulation of mosquito larval behavior. The precise regulation of invertebrate sodium channels is realized for the first time, which provides a new strategy for the basic and accurate research of invertebrate sodium channels.

We have investigated both batch and continuous flow photoarylations of enol-acetates to yield different α-arylated aldehyde and ketone building blocks by using diazonium salts as the aryl-radical source. Different porphyrins were used as SET photocatalysts, and photophysical as well as electrochemical studies were performed to rationalize the photoredox properties and suggest mechanistic insights. Notably, the most electron-deficient porphyrin (meso-tetra(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrin) shows the best photoactivity as an electron donor in the triplet excited state, which was rationalized by the redox potentials of excited states and the turnover of the porphyrins in the photocatalytic cycle. A two-step continuous protocol and multigram-scale reactions are also presented revealing a robust, cost-competitive, and easy methodology, highlighting the significant potential of porphyrins as SET photocatalysts.
