Visible-light-driven metal- and photocatalyst-free cascade 1,4-HAT and dearomative spirocyclization of -benzylacrylamides are described for sustainable synthesis of a variety of pharmaceutically important γ-ketoamides and 2-Azaspiro[4.5]decanes in one pot in good to excellent yields. Readily accessible and nontoxic materials, expensive Ir or Ru photocatalyst-free mild conditions, excellent functional group tolerance, operational simplicity, and scalability enhance the practical value of this protocol.

4'-Selective alkylation of nucleosides has been recognized as one of the ideal and straightforward approaches to chemically modified nucleosides, but such a transformation has been scarce and less explored. In this Letter, we combine a visible-light-mediated photoredox catalysis and hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) auxiliary to achieve β-C(sp)-H alkylation of alcohol on tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol scaffolds and exploit it for 4'-selective alkylation of nucleosides. The reaction involves an intramolecular 1,5-HAT process and stereocontrolled Giese addition of the resultant radicals.

Herein, we report a formal C-C bond azidation and cyanation of unactivated aliphatic ketones using commercially available tosyl azide and cyanide, respectively. A visible-light-mediated organophotocatalyst enables radical azidation and cyanation of ketone-derived pro-aromatic dihydroquinazolinones (under mostly redox-neutral conditions) as supported by preliminary mechanistic studies. These metal-free and scalable protocols can be used to synthesize tertiary, secondary, and primary alkyl azides and nitriles with good functional group tolerance and postsynthetic diversification of the azide group, including bioconjugation.

Herein, we describe a visible-light-mediated selenocyclization of -vinylanilides with diselenides, which provides a mild and effective method for the synthesis of selenylated 4-3,1-benzoxazines. This reaction proceeds under metal-free conditions, without the need for a chemical oxidant or a controlled O atmosphere and shows a broad substrate scope with yields of up to 98%. Additionally, the process is easily scalable to the gram scale.

The functionalization of the C-N bond of amines is a straightforward strategy for the construction of complex scaffolds or for the late-stage functionalization of pharmaceuticals. Herein, we describe a photoredox-catalyzed strategy for the deaminative alkylation of primary amine-derived isonitriles that provides unnatural amino acid derivatives under mild conditions. The use of silacarboxylic acids as silyl radical precursors enables the generation of carbon-centered radicals that allow the construction of Csp-Csp bonds via a Giese-type addition, avoiding the undesired hydrodeamination product.
