1,2-Fused indoles and pyrroles were prepared via an efficient intramolecular photoaddition reaction of 1-(omega-alkenyl)-2-haloindole-3-carbaldehydes and 1-(omega-alkenyl)-2-chloropyrrole-3-carbaldehydes. The presence of an acyl group was necessary for the photocyclization reactions. The halogen-atom-retained exo- and endo-cyclization products were generally produced with results similar to those of an atom-transfer cyclization reaction. In contrast, unsaturated cyclization products were obtained in the photoreaction of substrates having methyl groups on the vinyl group.

Donor-acceptor BODIPY dyads, functionalized at the 2 and 6 positions with benzyl ester (BDP-DE) or carboxylic acid (BDP-DA) groups, were synthesized and characterized for their optoelectronic properties. The introduction of carbonyl groups increased the reduction potential of the BODIPY core by 0.15-0.

Anticipating intramolecular excited-state proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) process within dinuclear Ir-photocatalytic system via the covalent linkage is seminal, yet challenging. Indeed, the development of various dinuclear complexes is also promising for studying integral photophysics and facilitating applications in catalysis or biology. Herein, this study reports dinuclear [Ir(bis{imidazo-phenanthrolin-2-yl}-hydroquinone)(ppy)] (1) complex by leveraging both ligand-centered redox property and intramolecular H-bonding for exploring dual excited-state proton-transfer assisted PCET process.

A photocatalytic sulfamoylation/5- cyclization of ()-'-arylidene--phenylmethacrylohydrazides with sulfamoyl chlorides was developed. The chemoselective intramolecular addition of the carbon-centered radical intermediate to the CN bond in the hydrazone motif gave the sulfamoylated pyrazolin-5-one. Besides, sulfonyl chlorides are also suitable reaction partners to access sulfonylated pyrazolin-5-ones.

Trifluoromethylarenes (ArCF) are crucial bioisosteres in medicinal chemistry, but catalyst-free and controlled photo-activation of the ArC(sp)-F bond remains a significant challenge. The photo-induced defluorination acyl fluoride exchange (photo-DAFEx) of m-trifluoromethylaniline, induced by ultraviolet light, emerges as a promising novel photo-click reaction for photoaffinity drug discovery. However, the photophysical properties of NMePhFC(sp)-F derivatives and factors affecting ArC(sp)-F bond activation in photo-DAFEx are not yet fully understood, hindering the development of new photo-defluorination reagents with longer absorption wavelength for the photo-DAFEx.

Article Synopsis
- Researchers developed a unique dumbbell-shaped molecule that facilitates ultrafast multielectron transfer (m-ET), which is essential for improving light-energy conversion.
- The m-ET in this system occurs 23 times faster than the more common single-electron transfer (s-ET) and has a significantly longer product lifetime (10 μs), which enhances its photocatalytic capabilities.
- This study showcases a new approach to achieving efficient m-ET in single molecules, offering potential advancements for applications in photocatalysis and molecular devices.
