Transition metal catalysis is crucial for the synthesis of complex molecules, with ligands and bases playing a pivotal role in optimizing cross-coupling reactions. Despite advancements in ligand design and base selection, achieving effective synergy between these components remains challenging. We present here a general approach to nickel-catalyzed photoredox reactions employing -butylamine as a cost-effective bifunctional additive, acting as the base and ligand.

Herein, we present a highly efficient allylic substitution of carbonates with Grignard reagents using a reusable cellulose-supported nanocopper catalyst. This approach highlights the first instance of heterogeneous catalysis for the cross-coupling of allylic alcohol substrates with Grignard reagents. The method features high yields, excellent regioselectivity, and complete chirality transfer.

We disclosed a new strategy for the synthesis of 1,2-amino alcohols enabled by visible light without the requirement of a photocatalyst and metal. Under light irradiation at 400 nm, the reaction of carbonyl derivatives and -arylamines proceeds via an electron-donor-acceptor (EDA) intermediate, obtaining diverse vicinal amino alcohols decorated with a two-electron-rich/-deficient aryl group.

The oxidative cross-coupling of benzyl alcohol (BA) and benzylamine (BZA) is employed for the production of the corresponding imine, N-benzylidenebenzylamine (BZI), under visible light irradiation (light-emitting diodes (LE with λ = 417 nm) and mild reaction conditions. The cesium bismuth halide perovskites (CsBiBr, CBB) are synthesized by a one-step solution process as a sustainable alternative for the widely used Pb-halide perovskites. The CBB photocatalyst is immobilized on a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) structure designed explicitly for three-dimensional (3D) printing to operate in both batch and continuous modes to overcome the need for a final catalyst separation step.
