For the first time, 4-alkyl Hantzsch esters were used to construct molecules with all-carbon quaternary centers by visible light-induced photoredox catalysis via transfer alkylation. Up to a 1500 h-1 turnover frequency was achieved in this reaction. Reactions of 4-alkyl Hantzsch nitriles as tertiary radical donors joined two contiguous all-carbon quaternary centers intermolecularly, and this chemistry was used to synthesize a common precursor of a class of hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase inhibitors.
Thione photochemistry: Abstraction and cyclization at the β-position of aralkyl thiones from two excited states

Excitation of a series of β-substituted aralkyl thiones either to the S2 (π,π*) state or to the S1 (n,π*) state leads to a formal insertion into the β-position and the formation of cyclopropyl thiols. The mechanisms of intramolecular
