A method was developed for ketone synthesis via a photoredox-assisted reductive acyl cross-coupling (PARAC) using a nickel/photoredox dual-catalyzed cross-electrophile coupling of two different carboxylic acid esters. A variety of aryl, 1°, 2°, 3°-alkyl 2-pyridyl esters can act as acyl electrophiles while N-(acyloxy)phthalimides (NHPI esters) act as 1°, 2°, 3°-radical precursors. Our PARAC strategy provides an alternative and reliable way to synthesize various sterically congested 3°-3°, 3°-2°, and aryl-3° ketones under mild and highly unified conditions, which have been otherwise difficult to access. The combined experimental and computational studies identified a Ni0/NiI/NiIII pathway for ketone formation.

Synthesis of symmetrical and unsymmetrical naphth-annelated thienyl heterocycles has been achieved via thionation of hydroxyketones/diketones using Lawesson's reagent. Photophysical studies of 1,3-disubstituted naphtho[c]thiophene analogs are presented. Electro-oxidative behavior of these naphtha-annelated thiophenes are investigated using cyclic voltammeter.
