Classical methods for achieving nucleophilic substitutions of alkyl electrophiles (SN1 and
SN2) have limited scope and are not generally amenable to enantioselective variants that …

The adoption of hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) in a photocatalytic approach, in which an
excited catalyst is responsible for substrate activation, offers unique opportunities in organic …

The Curtius rearrangement is a classic, powerful method for converting carboxylic acids into
protected amines, but its widespread use is impeded by safety issues (the need to handle …

The pool of abundant chiral terpene building blocks (ie,“chiral pool terpenes”) has long
served as a starting point for the chemical synthesis of complex natural products, including …

Donor-substituted diazo reagents, generated in situ from sulfonyl hydrazones in the
presence of base, can serve as suitable radical precursors for Co (II)-based metalloradical …

The design of efficient radical photoinitiating systems requires a systematic and detailed
evaluation of their photochemical characteristics. Correlating absorbance and the …

An iron‐catalyzed coupling reaction of O‐acyloximes and O‐benzoyl amidoximes with silyl
enol ethers is reported. The protocol provides access to functionalized pyrroles, 1, 6 …

We report herein the use of a dual catalytic system comprising a Lewis base catalyst such as
quinuclidin‐3‐ol or 4‐dimethylaminopyridine and a photoredox catalyst to generate carbon …

Silver‐mediated reactions have recently emerged as a frontier area in organic chemistry.
Indeed, the remarkable property of silver as a single‐electron oxidant has led to its …

Constructing products of high synthetic value from inexpensive and abundant starting
materials is of great importance. Aryl iodides are essential building blocks for the synthesis …
