A unique metal-free aerobic oxidation of primary amines via visible light photocatalytic double carbon–carbon bonds cleavage and multi carbon–hydrogen bonds oxidation was observed. Aerobic oxidation of primary amines could be controlled to afford acids by using dioxane with 18 W CFL, and lactones by using DMF with 8 W green LEDs, respectively. A plausible mechanism was proposed based on control experiments. This observation showed direct evidences for the fragmentation in the aerobic oxidation of aliphatic primary amines.

Aromatic vinyl ethers and acetals underwent a novel addition-fragmentation reaction affording olefins and esters in the presence of a Lewis acid. This reaction was applied to intramolecular cyclization reaction, giving five or six membered ring compounds in good yields. Paracotoin, an intermediate in the biosynthesis of shikimic acid, was synthesized using this cyclization reaction as the key step.
