Photocatalytic Redox-Neutral Approach to Diarylmethanes

We report a visible-light induced redox-neutral decarboxylative cross coupling reaction of indole-3-acetic acid NHPI esters with indoles using a Ru photosensitizer to deliver a wide range of symmetrical and unsymmetrical 3,3′-bisindolylmethane derivatives. Furthermore, the reaction is readily adapted to the preparation of a wide variety of diarylmethane derivatives.

Reductive Deoxygenation of Aryl Aldehydes and Ketones and Benzylic, Allylic, and Tertiary Alcohols by ZnI2-NaCNBH3

Sodium cyanoborohydride in the presence of zinc iodide is found to exhibit unique and selective reducing properties.The reagents reduce aryl aldehydes and ketones as well as benzylic, allylic, and tertiary alcohols to the corresponding hydrocarbons.
