1,4-Dibenzodiazepines, an important component of nitrogen-containing heterocycles, are widely present in drugs. Herein, we developed a photochemical radical cascade cyclization reaction of isocyanides with α-carbonyl bromides under mild conditions. A sequence of 11-alkyl-substituted 1,4-dibenzodiazepines were produced in 53%-85% yields, demonstrating excellent tolerance towards various functional groups.

This study investigates the potential of boron trifluoride etherate (BF·OEt) to trigger unprecedented reactions of 2-oxoaldehydes with nitriles and amides/sulphonamides. In contrast to the mechanism in conventional reactions, the α-carbonyl group in 2-oxoaldehydes induces a cyclization pathway to be followed when reacting with nitriles, yielding 4-amidooxazoles. Additionally, reactions with weak nucleophiles produce β-keto amides/sulphonamides.

Herein, we report a Cu-DTBP-catalyzed [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction between 1-(2-oxo-2-phenylethyl)--indole-3-aldehyde and arylalkene, using DMF as the solvent. Under relatively mild reaction conditions, a series of indole compounds were synthesized in moderate yields (up to 73%). This protocol features good functional group tolerance and high atom economy.

A novel silver-catalyzed cascade radical isonitrile insertion and defluorinative cyclization have been developed to synthesize CFH- and phosphinoyl-containing quinolines from -isocyanyl α-trifluoromethylstyrenes. The reaction proceeded under redox-neutral conditions and allowed the construction of a highly attractive quinoline ring system, with the simultaneous formation of the CFH group and introduction of various phosphinoyl groups in a single transformation, showing operational simplicity, a wide substrate scope, good tolerance for functional groups, and remarkable atom-/stepeconomy. Mechanistic studies indicated that the reaction is likely to involve the participation of P-centered radicals and key carbanion intermediates.

Photoswitchable fluorescent materials have gained significant attention for their potential in advanced information encryption and anti-counterfeiting applications. However, the common use of UV light to trigger the isomerization processes leads to photobleaching and poor fatigue resistance. Visible-light-driven fluorescent photoswitches are highly desirable, but achieving high cyclization yield remains challenging.
