The emergence of modern photocatalysis, characterized by mildness and selectivity, has
significantly spurred innovative late-stage C–H functionalization approaches that make use …

Within the wide family of gold-catalyzed reactions, gold photocatalysis intrinsically features
unique elementary steps. When gold catalysis meets photocatalysis, a valence change of …

The use of alkyl chlorides as C (sp 3)-hybridized electrophiles for the construction of C (sp 3)–
C (sp 3) bonds represents one of the most challenging issues in organic synthesis …

Gold chemistry has developed extensively in the past decade, and a dozen good reviews
have been presented discussing this progress. Few however have paid close attention to …

Photocatalytic hydrogen atom transfer is a very powerful strategy for the regioselective C
(sp3)–H functionalization of organic molecules. Herein, we report on the unprecedented …

Gold-catalysed oxidative coupling reactions often require strong oxidants because of the
high redox potential of Au (i)/Au (iii)(1.41 V versus the saturated calomel electrode), resulting …

Recent years have witnessed the emergence of direct intermolecular C (sp3)–H bond
functionalization using in situ generated aryl/alkyl radicals as a unique class of hydrogen …

Developed herein is a visible-light-driven synthesis of sulfides by an electron donor–
acceptor/single electron transfer and hydrogen atom transfer combined system without …

Electron donor–acceptor (EDA) complex-mediated single-electron transfer (SET) is a crucial
method for generating carbon radicals. Hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) enables the direct …

An efficient method for the synthesis of functionalized chiral tetrahydrofuran (THF) acetals
via Pd-catalyzed asymmetric allylic cycloaddition has been developed. With a palladium …
